Well, it seems to me the general problem is generating the proper hotplug events. If you actually pull, say, a USB device, the usb subsystem will tell you about it as it happens. But if you can suspend the machine and then arbitrarily rearrange the hardware, then on resume you'd have to go over the current hardware state and compare it to the pre-suspend state and generate all those events. Or I guess you could just generate unplug events for everything at suspend and re-plug anything you find on resume. Sounds pretty heavyweight though.
