Suspend to RAM on a machine with / on a fuse filesystem turns out to be 
a screaming nightmare - either the suspend fails because syslog (for 
instance) can't be frozen, or the machine deadlocks for some other 
reason I haven't tracked down. We could "fix" fuse, or alternatively we 
could do what we do for suspend to RAM on other platforms (PPC and APM) 
and just not use the freezer.
Only if you want to audit all character devices' read() and write()
methods for races against suspend().
/ on fuse is a bad idea.
