Not sure if I understand what you're saying here. Note that F10 also has
ext4.

Umount failures are normally due to some process having a file open on
the mounted system, or having its current directory there. When this
happens, you can use "fuser -m <filesystem>" to identify it. See
fuser(1).

What happens if you manually mount the partition and then do a shutdown?
