To avoid deadlock when suspending a multipath device after all its
paths have failed, stop queueing any I/O that is about to fail *before*
calling freeze_bdev instead of after.
Instead of setting a multipath 'suspended' flag which would have to be reset
if an error occurs during the process, save the previous queueing state
and leave userspace to restore if it wishes.
