I'm unable to reproduce this. On all my systems NetworkManager shuts
down cleanly and indeed doesn't stop dhclient, but that's "expected"
behavior, since when you're turning NM off you may wish to retain wired
connections, which happens to indeed be the case for users with mounted
network shares.
Is there anything else that's special with your installation which could
explain this being an issue?

Title:
NetworkManager causes orphaned inodes
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in “network-manager” source package in Precise:
Incomplete
Bug description:
During system shutdown, NetworkManager neither kills dhclient nor does
it remove the dhclient pid file from the directory
/var/run/sendsigs.omit.d. As a result, dhclient continues to hold the
pid file open for write and when /etc/init.d/umountroot tries to
remount the root filesystem read-only, the remount fails. The
message:
mount: / is busy
is seen in the console, and the filesystem must be recovered at boot
time:
[ 8.946427] EXT4-fs (sda1): INFO: recovery required on readonly filesystem
[ 8.947057] EXT4-fs (sda1): write access will be enabled during recovery
[ 11.234075] EXT4-fs (sda1): recovery complete
If shared libraries used by dhclient are updated before the reboot,
orphaned inodes associated with the .so files are created. For
example, doing "sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc6" and then
rebooting leads to:
[ 8.356521] EXT4-fs (sda1): INFO: recovery required on readonly filesystem
[ 8.356521] EXT4-fs (sda1): write access will be enabled during recovery
[ 8.716544] EXT4-fs (sda1): orphan cleanup on readonly fs
[ 8.716544] EXT4-fs (sda1): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced
inode 313749
[ 8.724544] EXT4-fs (sda1): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced
inode 313733
[ 8.724544] EXT4-fs (sda1): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced
inode 313725
[ 8.724544] EXT4-fs (sda1): 3 orphan inodes deleted
[ 8.728544] EXT4-fs (sda1): recovery complete
This is network-manager 0.9.3.995+git201203152001.04b2a74-0ubuntu1
running under 12.04. I don't believe any actual data loss will occur
as a result of this bug, but it's likely to produce much user anxiety.
Also see Bug 952315, which misidentifies the cause of the problems as
upstart.
