Since it isn't reproducible for you right now there isn't much to go
upon. But if it happens again please run strace on df and capture the
full output.
$ strace -o df.strace.out -v df
That will show the statfs calls made by df and the result returned by
the kernel for them. That information will show what is actually
happening. Example:
statfs("/home", {f_type="EXT2_SUPER_MAGIC", f_bsize=4096, f_blocks=52189320,
f_bfree=11286520, f_bavail=8636972, f_files=13262848, f_ffree=10743937,
f_fsid={-118515142, -1991503699}, f_namelen=255, f_frsize=4096}) = 0
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/v1-home 208757280 163611264 34547824 83% /home
/dev/mapper/v1-home 200G 157G 33G 83% /home
Send that information in and then we can see what is happening.
