It might be helpful to explain why you delay calling __put_super (I
can't see why, though I realise that fs/super.c does it this way too),
and perhaps also where the balancing get is (it's not obvious that
s->count++ is the open coded get).

No chance of a race against another caller of freeze_super, right?
(Userspace is already frozen and kernel threads aren't going to invoke
this without pushing). Might be good to document that there's no locking
in freeze_super anyway?

Comment why there's no matching thaw_processes() as well?

That's all from me.

Evolution (n): A hypothetical process whereby improbable
events occur with alarming frequency, order arises from chaos, and
no one is given credit.
