Bug 185374

I was attempting to unmount an msdosfs filesystem that I had attempted to fill up and card looks corrupted, see: g_vfs_done() errors below:

The first time around, I attempted to umount(1) the SD card, and was giving a "resource unavailable" error (the exact string I cannot remember). Being a typical user, I added the -f (force) flag and that caused my machine to kernel panic with the following:

How-To-Repeat: I was able to reproduce a crash, but without the same stack backtrace as above by:

1. Inserting SD card
2. Mounting
3. Writing a file to it that would exceed disk capacity (dd if=/dev/random of=/mnt/card/garbage.bin bs=1M count=1024)
4. Watch g_vfs_done() errors spew in /var/log/messages in a seeming infinite loop
5. Attempt to unmount the device
6. Crash
