What about the case of a umass device where we have a filesystem mounted
from it? Should we unmount before sleeping, or handle this device
differently? (I ask because I'm looking into a suitable powerhook for
piixide in ACPI S3 sleep right now, and I can't very well unmount the
root filesystem before suspending).
