    fs/block_dev: fix NULL ptr deref in freeze_bdev()
    
    freeze_bdev() called twice on the same block device without
    mounted filesystem will lead to NULL-ptr deref:
    
     BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000068
     IP: [<ffffffff810b1729>] up_read+0x29/0x40
    
     Call Trace:

    Check get_super() result to fix that.
