You would have to write your fuse filesystem to work completly without
allocating memory at runtime. And that includes the write syscalls to
the actual devices. I don't think fuse can be made to not allocate any
ram and then you get deadlocks where it can't allocate ram and can't
swap because it waits for the allocation.
