Subject: [PATCH -mm] swsusp: Freeze filesystems during suspend

Freeze all filesystems during the suspend by calling freeze_bdev() for each of
them and thaw them during the resume using thaw_bdev().

This is needed by swsusp, because some filesystems (eg. XFS) use work queues
and worker_threads run with PF_NOFREEZE set, so they can cause some writes
to be performed after the suspend image has been created which may corrupt
the filesystem.  The additional benefit of it is that if the resume fails, the
filesystems will be in a consistent state and there won't be any journal replays
needed.

The freezing of filesystems is carried out when processes are being frozen, so
on the majority of architectures it also will happen during a suspend to RAM.
