umount -f -l <mountpoint>

But I assume there's some bug lying deeper in the pit, as even when
resuming in the same environment, old mount points don't work any more.
This is yet to be investigated, though.

/etc/sysconfig/powersave/events: EVENT_GLOBAL_*
You should be able to add a script here. It has the advantage, that it
is always called, no matter how the suspend was triggered (except for by
using the direct kernel interface).
