You'd probably need 2 processes ; one to drive and another process to go off and stat the mount point. The driver would invoke the stat'ers, and if the stat doesn't come back in some seconds, declare the mount hung. Because if the mount really is hung, the stat process is going to hang forever too, so you don't want your driver process to get hung too.
