I'm not sure you can cancel the unmount since its in a system call. 
This failure will occur after a timeout as jfs waits for outstanding I/O
to complete.  Did it crash immediately when you hit cntl-c, or may the
cntl-c have had nothing to do with it?

This should never happen!  mp->logical_size and size should always be
4096.  The test is in there in case we ever add support for smaller
block sizes.  Something is very wrong here.
