Commit 8e961870bb9804110d5c8211d5d9d500451c4518 removed the FREEZE/THAW
handling in xfs_compat_ioctl but never added any compat handler back, so
now any freeze/thaw request from a 32-bit binary ond 64-bit userspace
will fail.

As these ioctls are 32/64-bit compatible two simple COMPATIBLE_IOCTL
entries in fs/compat_ioctl.c will do the job.

So who's going to send this to Linus?  Having freeze/thaw regressed in
2.6.29 would be very sad for all the xfs users.
