From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>

Fix freeze/thaw filesystems with CONFIG_BLOCK disabled:
kernel/power/process.c:124: warning: implicit declaration of function 'freeze_fil
esystems'
kernel/power/process.c:189: warning: implicit declaration of function 'thaw_files
ystems'

I believe we'll simply want to remove {thaw,freeze}_filesystems. XFS
problem is solved with freezeable workqueues, and
{thaw,freeze}_filesystems has problems if someone is creating dm
snapshots in the meantime.
