Good point, BTW.  I hadn't thought about it from that angle.

Of course, for Yijing's use, it's important that we're able to get the
*non-cached* serial number, because the cached one belongs to the old,
pre-suspend device, and we want to look at the post-suspend device to
see if it's the same.

Sigh.  I dunno, I'll have to finish sorting through this in a week or
so...  (I'll be on vacation for the next few days.)
