This seems correct to me.

Based on the above host-output, I'd say it is "df" in guest
which does not show correct filesystem usage (much less, than
it should show). Concerning hardlinks, I'm not aware of any,
but they are hard to find. Nevertheless, hardlinks should not
cause output of df to be incorrect...
