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.
