umount saying that a mounted directory is not mounted

Hello,

I'm using the attached script to perform some tests. However from time
to time I get the following results:

This shows that (based on the way the script works) that a mount call
succeeds, then a subsequent write succeeds as well and when umount is
invoked it says that the location is not mounted, eventhough it is
indeed mounted? What;s more is the fact that if I rerun the script
umount works as expected? Is this some kind of racy behavior? Am I
missing something? This is on kernel 4.2.6

Regards,
Nikolay
