To use the online disk snapshot for online-backup, application-level consistency of the snapshot image is required. However, currently the guest agent can provide only filesystem-level consistency, and the snapshot may contain dirty data, for example, incomplete transactions. This patch provides the opportunity to quiesce applications before snapshot is taken. If --fsfreeze-hook option is specified, the hook is executed with "freeze" argument before the filesystem is frozen by fsfreeze-freeze command. As for fsfreeze-thaw command, the hook is executed with "thaw" argument after the filesystem is thawed.
