Public bug reported:

The MAAS team uses a script, lp:maas-images, which generates the images
available at images.maas.io. As part of this process we use the
following to convert a SquashFS image to an ext4 image.

sudo bash -ec 'src="$1"; img="$2"; trgmp="$3";
    mounts=""
    cleanup() { for m in $mounts; do umount "$m"; done; }
    trap cleanup EXIT
    mount -o loop "$img" "$trgmp"
    mounts="$trgmp"
    unsquashfs -force -xattrs -dest "$trgmp" "$src"' \
    "squashimg-to-image" "$squashimg" "$output" "$trgmp"
ret=$?
rm -Rf "$mtmp" || return
return $ret

Prior to 4.4-1ubuntu1 the trap would always cause the cleanup function
to always be called. Its now only called on failure. This causes the
mount to remain and the following rm to fail. If I add 'false' to the
end of the command script or downgrade to 4.3-15ubuntu1 the cleanup
occurs.
