Hi Vitaly,
Thanks for your patchset!

FYI: Greg checked in a patch of mine several hours ago -- my patch
implemented "thaw all filesytems on a failure of freeze" too. :-)

Please see my patch in Greg's char-misc-next tree:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git/commit/?h=char-misc-next&id=4f689190bb55d171d2f6614f8a6cbd4b868e48bd

Can you please rebase  your patch(es) on Greg's tree?

Thanks,
