Since a loop device is backed by a file, a backup will already result in
its parent filesystem being frozen. It's sufficient to just freeze the
parent filesystem, so we can skip the loop device.
This avoids a situation where a loop device and its parent filesystem are
both frozen and then thawed out of order. For example, if the loop device
is enumerated first, we would thaw it while its parent filesystem is still
frozen. The thaw operation fails and the loop device remains frozen.

Unfortunately, FITHAW errors cannot be reported the same way as we

kvp_daemon does some operations which take an unpredicable amount of
time. In addition the kernel driver gives the kvp_daemon a 5 second
timeout to respond to message from the host. If an operation such as
getaddrinfo takes a long time and the timeout triggers then netlink
errors occour. As a result of such errors the daemon just terminates and
the service becomes unavailable.
Idendifying and fixing these shortcomings in the kernel-userland
communication protocol will be done in separate patches. This change
fixes just one obvious timeout bug.

the consumer of the hostname string, remove trailing newline in error
case, use snprintf to not overrun output buffer, get hostname only once
and return the cached result.
