Problem is that suspending _with_ removable mass storage devices
attached just will not work. User will unplug them, then complain
about corruption. Advanced user will unplug them, work with them
somewhere else, replug them, then loose filesystem.

Feel free to send patch to teach filesystems to handle this.

People have already fixed this:  sync() before suspend,
and use a journalling filesystem.  Problem solved.

And when the rootfs is on an external drive, this is the *only* option.

So let's make it work (again, like it used to work!).
