Andrew Deason bd2a7530ad RedHat: Retry umount /afs on systemd shutdown
When systemd tries to stop openafs-client.service during system
shutdown, our 'umount /afs' will fail if someone else is accessing
/afs. The openafs-client.service unit is then marked as deactivated
(and failed), and the shutdown sequence proceeds.

After all services have been stopped, systemd-shutdown tries to kill
all remaining processes with SIGTERM and then SIGKILL, waiting
DefaultTimeoutStopSec seconds (default: 90) for them to die. If there
are unkillable processes running (for example, afsd), this results in
at least a 3-minute delay.

It's hard to make sure there are no processes accessing /afs during
the shutdown sequence, since that could include processes outside of
defined systemd units. So some processes may be shutting down in
parallel with openafs-client.service, and so it's a race whether there
are /afs-using processes when we try to umount /afs.

To avoid the most common cases of this, retry our umount during
openafs-client's ExecStop for $UMOUNT_TIMEOUT seconds (default: 30),
to give other /afs-using processes a chance to go away. Only do this
if the system is shutting down (according to 'systemctl
is-system-running'), so users don't see a long delay running
'systemctl stop openafs-client' during normal system operation.

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and
access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as
they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is
called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many
different machines, but are available to users on every machine.
