How did you set the s_def_hash_version?   Were you using debugfs?

And did you turn on the dir_index feature?  

With recent versions of e2fsprogs the dir_index feature is enabled
default, with DX_HASH_TEA as the default.

Huh?  What do you mean by that?  Are you seeing two entries named
"mnt" in the /mnt directory?   I wasn't able to reproduce this.

You didn't list any "mnt" entries above.  So I don't know what you saw.
