I've made some tests. Basically umount + mount (with time measurement):

$ for i in $(seq -s ' ' 1 20) ; do echo "[=> umount [$MNT]: $i" ; time umount
$MNT ; [ $? -eq 0 ] && echo "[=> mount [$MNT]: $i" && time mount $MNT || break ;
done 2>&1 | tee ~/${MNT##*/}_mount_git.log

where MNT was set to three different partitions (all with XFS). Both on rc2 and
git version, no bug appeared. If someone is interested (I've seen some delays in
mounting before), some time results here:
http://pin.if.uz.zgora.pl/~difrost/linux-next/mount_logs/

I will still mess around so maybe it will appear once more than will try do some
more tests (suggestions are welcome).
