Has mount or umount expose any blocking behavior? 

As fair as I remember you cannot umount directory when any process
holds reference to it.

Here it looks like process which copy data queues data for writing and
exit from cp.

Presumably, when we call umount there is still some pending data for
write.

Hence the error.

Maybe there is a switch for mount/umount/cp which can correct such
behavior?
