Well, in theory, if you can isolate the process that's keeping the filesystem
active, you should be able to kill the process, then umount the filesystem.
Try using fuser and/or lsof to do this.
If the process is in a Disk Wait state for the fs that's stale, then you're
probably out of luck.
If you can't kill the process, then a reboot is you only option :(

It may look like I'm just sitting here doing nothing,
but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.
If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!
