acct_on(): don't mess with freeze protection

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838700
commit 9419a3191dcb27f24478d288abaab697228d28e6 upstream.

What happens there is that we are replacing file->path.mnt of
a file we'd just opened with a clone and we need the write
count contribution to be transferred from original mount to
new one.  That's it.  We do *NOT* want any kind of freeze
protection for the duration of switchover.

IOW, we should just use __mnt_{want,drop}_write() for that
switchover; no need to bother with mnt_{want,drop}_write()
there.
