>Description:
Whenever I suspend and resume my netbook, moused freaks out when I try to use the touchpad and the pointer jumps all over the screen in X11 -- probably because the file descriptors aren't closed and reopened in moused properly.

The attached patch mitigates my issues, but probably isn't the correct resolution to the problem.

More details:

atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> port 0x60,0x64 irq 1 on acpi0
atkbd0: <AT Keyboard> irq 1 on atkbdc0
kbd0 at atkbd0
atkbd0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0
psm0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
psm0: model IntelliMouse, device ID 3

>How-To-Repeat:
1. Install CURRENT on netbook.
2. Start X11 (I use fluxbox).
3. Suspend netbook.
4. Resume netbook.
5. Try to use the mouse.
