The freeze count never want away. IOW, for each block device we still
have bd_fsfreeze_count otherwise we couldn't nest per-block device. What
we need is a freeze counter in sb_writers so we can nest superblock
freezes. IOW, we need to count the number of block devices that
requested/caused the superblock to be frozen. I think we're all in
agreement though. All of our suggestions should be the same.
I'm currently testing:
