Are you using a 2.6 kernel? Then the workaround is not to use xfs_freeze when creating snapshots! No device-mapper-based snapshots have ever needed it. Why do people persist in thinking incorrectly that XFS is the only filesystem that has to be told explicitly to do this? Device-mapper snapshots in *all* kernels provide this functionality automatically provided the filesystem supports it, which XFS does.
