Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/3] Implement generic freeze feature

I have modified the following two points from the previous version.
These are suggested by Christoph Hellwig.
o Two helper functions for ioctls (ioctl_freeze and ioctl_thaw) are
  added for the readability.
o The semaphore for the freeze operation is replaced with new bit
  flag (bd_state) for the efficiency of the locking. 

The ioctls for the generic freeze feature are below.
o Freeze the filesystem
  int ioctl(int fd, int FIFREEZE, arg)
    fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
    FIFREEZE: request code for the freeze
    arg: Ignored
    Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1

o Unfreeze the filesystem
  int ioctl(int fd, int FITHAW, arg)
    fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
    FITHAW: request code for unfreeze
    arg: Ignored
    Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1
