Before this patch, function gfs2_freeze would loop forever if the
file system trying to be frozen is withdrawn. That's because function
gfs2_lock_fs_check_clean tries to enqueue the glock of the journal
and the gfs2_glock returns -EIO because you can't enqueue a journaled
glock after a withdraw.

This patch moves the check for file system withdraw inside the loop
so that the loop can end when withdraw occurs.
