I guess that before unfreezing the processes it's safe to have a
broken swap space; but if it's frozen suspend cannot read and reset
the swap header, right?
I suppose that there's no way to preserve the "new" initrd across the
atomic restore? Otherwise the content of the ram disk is usually
available under /initrd after boot.
