^^^ Should /mnt really be here? I guess some changing
of a directory is missing...

OK, you've changed '.' directory entry to a normal directory entry with a
name 0x6e. I guess that has some potential in confusing something. Actually
rm -rf does not reproduce the problem for me (it just complains about
cyclic directory hierarchy) but trying to rmdir bad entry hangs the system
- we try to grab i_mutex for the directory twice because the directory is
it's own parent... That would be kind of hard to fix in VFS since once our
directory structure contains a cycle, our locking protocol is no longer
deadlock free. I'll see what we could do...
