Tnx for your response. After recompiling the kernel with magic_sysrq
enabled, rebooting, and repeating umount with the reiser4 md device, the
following trace contains a reiser4-entry:

Freely inerpreting this trace, I'd say that the umount causes the
reiser4 filesystem to do an extra commit, and the sync_page seems to be
waiting for IO.
Are there other traces of interrest?
