I am saying this without having looked at the code first, but I
believe that it is already impossible to umount a filesystem with any
OPEN files on it: "filesystem in use". Assuming that all of the
buffers are flushed upon close, the only thing you really should get
is a clean flag problem, as would happen in a crash on a filesystem
with no open files.
It looks more like he crashed to me, but then something could be
munged up in the code.
is softupdates on?
