Right now it doesn't freeze (or thaw) any filesystems. It just sync()s them
before creating the hibernation image.
However, the fact that you've seen corruption with the XFS filesystems frozenAnd that was why I chimed in - I don't think freezing fixes the problem (though it may make sense for other reasons).
before the hibernation indicates that the problem occurs on a lower level.
