Doesn't handing of resumes needs more attention overall?

Example, root on eMMC (e.g. a 32-MByte non-removable chip) wouldn't
resume at all well the last time I checked ... mounted file systems
(not just root) made trouble. Hardware that reliably reports card
insert/remove was rude in the same ways.
