Running


STICKPATH=3D/path/to/USB/stick
find /proc -type l -path '/proc/*/cwd' |
xargs ls -l |
grep ' '"$STICKPATH"'$' |
sed 's@.* /proc/@@;s@/cwd .*@@'


will give you a nice list of the processes whose current working
directory is /path/to/USB/stick.


Piping the above command sequence to

xargs -n 1 ps -f --pid

will show you more info (like the process's virtual screen etc.)
about the processes that keep the USB stick busy.
