"SYSRQ + J" triggers a call to emergency_thaw_all(). Currently, this is an

This happens because thaw_bdev() fails to return -EINVAL in the non-frozen case,
and I fixed it so that do_one_thaw() can recognize this case and quit from
looping. I checked that none of the other thaw_bdev() callers check the return
value.
Hi Charles,
Can you please resend this without the hunks that change only
whitespace? Looks like your editor was properly killing off trailing
whitespace, but that's not related to your fix.
Also, please reference the commit where the regression was introduced:
