I submitted this late at night. Now in the morning another solution
came to my mind. I thought I will find it in replies but I didn't.

In case of USB device (which device in question in this problem
happens to be) usbd can be used to mount it.

If attach/detach events trigger mount/unmount commands this problem
shouldn't exist. I didn't try though.

Otherwise for non-USB devices this situation probably can only happen
in case of failing devices.
