Normal writes are done synchronously, and writable mmap is not supported. So sync() should really be a no-op for fuse. > the system will initiate a write-out on them and wait for it to > finish.

It would be nice, if someone who can reproduce the deadlock could debug it. Does sysrq still work during suspend?
