xfs: drop freeze protection when running GETFSMAP
A recent log refactoring patchset from Brian Foster relaxed fsfreeze
behavior with regards to the buffer cache -- now freeze only waits for
pending buffer IO to finish, and does not try to drain the buffer cache
LRU. As a result, fsfreeze should no longer stall indefinitely while
fsmap runs. Drop the sb_start_write calls around fsmap invocations.
While we're cleaning things, add a comment to the xfs_trans_alloc_empty
call explaining why we're running around with empty transactions.
