After discussion with Scott, the best short-term solution would seem to
be:
1) Modify /etc/init.d/umountfs to call the following in do_stop before
calling umount/swapoff:
"initctl emit unmount-filesystem"
2) Modify /etc/init.d/umountroot to call the following in do_stop before
calling umount:
"initctl emit unmount-root-filesystem"
3) Modify all upstart configs for services which are "slow" to stop such that
they "stop on unmount-filesystem",
rather than "stop on runlevel [016]".
4) Test!
The overall effect of this being that when /etc/init.d/umountfs emits
the unmount-filesystem event, it will block until any Upstart jobs which
"stop on" those events have completed. Thus, /etc/init.d/umountfs will
wait for the mysql Upstart job to finish before unmounting its
filesystems.
