freeze_bdev: kill bd_mount_sem
Now that we have the freeze count there is not much reason for bd_mount_sem
anymore. The actual freeze/thaw operations are serialized using the
bd_fsfreeze_mutex, and the only other place we take bd_mount_sem is
get_sb_bdev which tries to prevent mounting a filesystem while the block
device is frozen. Instead of add a check for bd_fsfreeze_count and
return -EBUSY if a filesystem is frozen. While that is a change in user
visible behaviour a failing mount is much better for this case rather
than having the mount process stuck uninterruptible for a long time.
