I have some problem with your patch in #2. It 'helps' on the short run; but the 
actual bug is elsewhere, and a tad more serious. 
Look at my first post: Even if the fsck dies as both of us found out, the 
'mount' starts (so it finds the partition to be not mounted, okay), but never 
continues, never finishes, and it is impossible to kill the mount process one 
way or another; including a 'halt'. 
'mount' should know better than staying indefinitely, it should find that it 
actually is working on an *open* filesystem (if your theory/patch was correct, 
the filesystem *is* open!), and if it can't open it properly, it should say so, 
and it also should time out. 
Or, we have to assume that the code of mount is totally crap. Hmm.
