I reproduced it and dumped the task list.

The user-mode XFS processes were:

root      2816  0.0  0.1  2812  628 pts/3    S+   12:58   0:00  | 
\_ strace -ff -o freeze.txt xfs_freeze -f /mnt/xfs

My I/O generating processes were:

Here are some relevant information from /var/log/messages (I stuck in a 
divider when I pasted in sections that weren't just right after the 
previous section):
