SubjectRe: [PATCH 3.9-stable] jfs: Several bugs in jfs_freeze() and jfs_unfreeze()

I'm kind of on the fence on this one. I believe the failure here was
triggered by induced errors to check the error paths. I'm not aware of a
real-world crash due to the problem being fixed here. Of course, it's
possible, but I don't think it's very likely.

Thanks,
Dave
