[PATCH 1/2 v 2][RFC] fsfreeze: add new internal __sb_start_write_wait

[Marco Stornelli]

Added a new internal function __sb_start_write_wait. It must be called
when we want wait for freeze events. We can wait in killable or
uninterruptible state. The old __sb_start_write now it's used only
when we don't want to wait. In addition, a new wrapper sb_start_write_killable
is added.
