Unmount is iffy, we do have a definite race condition in there, you will
not see it all the time, it depends how fast your I/O gets processed, and
how much of it there is. We do need to be able to wait for all of the I/O
to be done before completing the unmount (and recovery by the way), we
just don't have a way of doing that so far.
