Hi,

What information exactly expected to be archived by mentioned experiment?
1) Logging of failed suspend/resume is not possible in this situation.
2) Filesystem corruption and kernel crash during mount attempt are already 
documented.
3) Filesystem recovery procedure incompetence is obvious here.

If its worth something, suspend/resume issues are the same on Fedora14
and RedHat6, not sure regarding kernel crash since their filesystem
recovery procedure is different.

My observetions shows that, occasionally, VFS awakes before block device on USB 
device becomes ready (probably due to delayed/forced USB host reset).
After failure, XFS retries and survives, while EXT fails immediately and 
remounts root as R/O.
The big questions here, is why EXT leaves filesystem in broken state in firsts 
place?
Isn't it supposed to commit both data and journal before suspend?

I am pretty sure mainline Linux also affected, but I am ready to perform 
validation.
Since suspend/resume part of an issue is reconstructable only if root 
filesystem is EXT4 and on USB, LiveCD is not an option. Is it ok to install 
clean system on USB?
