What? No.

Never put random undocument sleeps in tests to hide failures - they
are almost always covering up a problem that needs to be understood
and fixed.

First thing to do here is understand why the filesystem is busy and
can't unmount. What is holding a reference that prevents unmount?

Is systemd or udev doing something stupid on your system and so
racing with unmount? Or is something else going on?

Cheers,

Dave.
