Thanks everyone for the feedback.  Here's [PATCH v2], with these notable
changes since [PATCH 0/5 resend]:
   - made bisect-safe "Freeze and thaw the journal on ext4 freeze"
   - functional change: allow read-only quota subcmds when frozen
   - added "VFS: Rename and refactor writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle"
   - split-out "VFS: Avoid read-write deadlock in try_to_writeback_inodes_sb"
   - split-out "VFS: Document s_frozen state through freeze_super"
   - dropped "VFS: Rename vfs_check_frozen()"
