So unless I'm missing something this is wrong.  We do __iterate_supers() which
does down_write(sb) and then call into this.  Lets imagine a perfect world where
the sb was only frozen once.  So we go into __thaw_super() and return 0 because
we were successfull and do deactivate_locked_super() which does
up_write(s_umount), and then we loop because we want to get an -EINVAL to know
we completely unfroze, so we call into __thaw_super(sb) without s_umount held
and then we get our error and do up_write(s_umount) _again_.  So this needs to
be reworked to be correct ;).  Thanks,

Josef
