btrfs: fix fsfreeze hang caused by delayed iputs deal

When running fstests generic/068, sometimes we got below deadlock:

>From this warning, freeze_super() already holds SB_FREEZE_FS, but
btrfs_freeze() will call btrfs_commit_transaction() again, if
btrfs_commit_transaction() finds that it has delayed iputs to handle,
it'll start_transaction(), which will try to get SB_FREEZE_FS lock
again, then deadlock occurs.

The root cause is that in btrfs, sync_filesystem(sb) does not make
sure all metadata is updated. There still maybe some codes adding
delayed iputs, see below sample race window:

         CPU1                                  |         CPU2
|-> freeze_super()                             |
    |-> sync_filesystem(sb);                   |
    |                                          |-> cleaner_kthread()
    |                                          |   |-> btrfs_delete_unused_bgs()
    |                                          |       |-> btrfs_remove_chunk()
    |                                          |           |-> btrfs_remove_block_group()
    |                                          |               |-> btrfs_add_delayed_iput()
    |                                          |
    |-> sb->s_writers.frozen = SB_FREEZE_FS;   |
    |-> sb_wait_write(sb, SB_FREEZE_FS);       |
    |   acquire SB_FREEZE_FS lock.             |
    |                                          |
    |-> btrfs_freeze()                         |
        |-> btrfs_commit_transaction()         |
            |-> btrfs_run_delayed_iputs()      |
            |   will handle delayed iputs,     |
            |   that means start_transaction() |
            |   will be called, which will try |
            |   to get SB_FREEZE_FS lock.      |

To fix this issue, introduce a "int fs_frozen" to record internally whether
fs has been frozen. If fs has been frozen, we can not handle delayed iputs.
