[PATCH] f2fs: let background GC being aware of freezing

[Chao Yu]

When ->freeze_fs is called from lvm for doing snapshot, it needs to
make sure there will be no more changes in filesystem's data, however,
previously, background GC wasn't aware of freezing, so in environment
with active background GC thread, data of snapshot becomes unstable.

This patch fixes this issue by adding sb_{start,end}_intwrite in GC
flow.
