    Takashi Sato 提交于
    The ioctls for the generic freeze feature are below.
    o Freeze the filesystem
      int ioctl(int fd, int FIFREEZE, arg)
        fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
        FIFREEZE: request code for the freeze
        arg: Ignored
        Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1
    
    o Unfreeze the filesystem
      int ioctl(int fd, int FITHAW, arg)
        fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
        FITHAW: request code for unfreeze
        arg: Ignored
        Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1
        Error number: If the filesystem has already been unfrozen,
                      errno is set to EINVAL.
