This is incompatible with the code in kernel/power/main.c, since we only
disable the nonboot CPUs after devices have been suspended.  Do you think that
your framework can be modified to work without disabling the nonboot CPUs
by the user space?

Sure.  It was a "if it can be done in userspace, do it in userspace"
kind of decision, but I'm not wedded to it.

I actually do want to converge to using the generic suspend-to-ram
code on powerbooks.  I just want to avoid causing regressions for
powerbook users, including myself. :)

Curious, do you actually use fuse? Can you try it _with_ freezer and
produce sysrq-t trace of deadlock?
