fs: Fix freeze_bdev()/thaw_bdev() accounting of bd_fsfreeze_sb
freeze/thaw_bdev() currently use bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count to infer whether or not bdev->bd_fsfreeze_sb is valid (it's valid iff bd_fsfreeze_count is non-zero). thaw_bdev() doesn't nullify bd_fsfreeze_sb. But this means a freeze_bdev() call followed by a thaw_bdev() call can leave bd_fsfreeze_sb with a non-null value, while bd_fsfreeze_count is zero. If freeze_bdev() is called again, and this time get_active_super() returns NULL (e.g. because the FS is unmounted), we'll end up with bd_fsfreeze_count > 0, but bd_fsfreeze_sb is *untouched* - it stays the same (now garbage) value. A subsequent thaw_bdev() will decide that the bd_fsfreeze_sb value is legitimate (since bd_fsfreeze_count > 0), and attempt to use it. Fix this by always setting bd_fsfreeze_sb to NULL when bd_fsfreeze_count is successfully decremented to 0 in thaw_sb(). Alternatively, we could set bd_fsfreeze_sb to whatever get_active_super() returns in freeze_bdev() whenever bd_fsfreeze_count is successfully incremented to 1 from 0 (which can be achieved cleanly by moving the line currently setting bd_fsfreeze_sb to immediately after the "sync:" label, but it might be a little too subtle/easily overlooked in future). This fixes the currently panicking xfstests generic/085.
