As part of the freeze operation, gfs2_freeze_func() is left blocking on a request to hold the sd_freeze_gl in SH. This glock is held in EX by the gfs2_freeze() code. A subsequent call to gfs2_unfreeze() releases the EXclusively held sd_freeze_gl, which allows gfs2_freeze_func() to acquire it in SH and resume its operation. gfs2_unfreeze(), however, doesn't wait for gfs2_freeze_func() to complete. If a umount is issued right after unfreeze, it could result in an inconsistent filesystem because some journal data (statfs update) isn't written out. Refer to commit 24972557 for a more detailed explanation of how freeze/unfreeze work. This patch causes gfs2_unfreeze() to wait for gfs2_freeze_func() to complete before returning to the user.
