Well, this is basically reverting commit 22e9947a4b2b, but doing it in a
slightly different way.

I worry about potentially bringing back problems from doing work after the
filesystem has already been unmounted.

Can't you just make the filesystem flush its eviction work items when it is
being unmounted?
