Fix two deadlocks in snapshots:
1) Release the snapshot file lock while suspending the system. Otherwise a process trying to read the lock may block on its containing directory preventing the suspension from completing. Thanks to Sean Kelly <smkelly@zombie.org> for finding this deadlock. 2) Replace some bdwrite's with bawrite's so as not to fill all the buffers with dirty data. The buffers could not be cleaned as the snapshot vnode was locked hence the system could deadlock when making snapshots of really massive filesystems. Thanks to Hidetoshi Shimokawa <simokawa@sat.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp> for figuring this out. Sponsored by: DARPA & NAI Labs.
