The filesystem freezing code needs to transfer ownership of a rwsem
embedded in a percpu-rwsem from the task that does the freezing to
another one that does the thawing by calling percpu_rwsem_release()
after freezing and percpu_rwsem_acquire() before thawing.
However, the new rwsem debug code runs afoul with this scheme by warning
that the task that releases the rwsem isn't the one that acquires it.

To work properly with the rwsem debug code, we need to annotate that the
rwsem ownership is unknown during the tranfer period until a brave soul
comes forward to acquire the ownership. During that period, optimistic
spinning will be disabled.
