[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Use proper agent entering function when freezing filesystems

When doing snapshots, the filesystem freeze function used the agent
entering function that expects the qemud_driver unlocked. This might
cause a deadlock of the qemu driver if the agent does not respond.

The only call path of this function has the qemud_driver locked, so this
patch changes the entering functions to those expecting the driver
locked.
