+Naohiro and Johannes

This is not a hang. Mount will just take a looooong time due to an inefficiency
in how block groups are checked: a single zone report zone command is issued per
block group, so with a disk almost full, that takes a long time (75000+zones
checked one by one). Naohiro is working on a fix for this.
