[PATCH] fs: add the FIGETFROZEN ioctl call

From: Florian Margaine
Date: Thu Apr 14 2016 - 03:57:32 EST


This lets userland get the filesystem freezing status, aka whether the
filesystem is frozen or not. This is so that an application can know if
it should freeze the filesystem or if it isn't necessary when taking a
snapshot.
