Please more details. :-)
The current changelog reads like every filesystem should implement
it as nop. Which is obviously not the case.

fs/super.c checks whether ->freeze_fs() is implemented, so
a nop-implementation does not make sense here.

I bet you hit this in fs/ioctl.c:
        /* If filesystem doesn't support freeze feature, return. */
        if (sb->s_op->freeze_fs == NULL && sb->s_op->freeze_super == NULL)
                return -EOPNOTSUPP;

Correct?

And the most important detail is missing, why is UBIFS allowed
to have a nop-implementation?

Thanks,
