that's weird. when I mount, everything looks good, "sda1". But as soon
as I cd to the mountpoint and do "ls" (on another SD card "ls" works but
actual file reading leads to the exact same errors), I get:

I then formatted sda1 to ext2 (on the runtime suspend system testing
your patch) and that seems to have worked!
Again accessing the mountpoint then yield the very same "device offline
or changed" errors.
What kind of device are you testing? You should be easily able to
reproduce this using an "sd" device.
The problems must lie in the different other drivers we use I guess.
