rtl8169_runtime_resume() has a check for tp->TxDescArray at the beginning.
Therefore it will return immediately before even calling
__rtl8169_resume(), because tp->TxDescArray is set in rtl_open() only.
So I don't think the described issue exists.
However I have to admit that I wasn't aware that netif_running() is true
already when entering rtl_open(), so thanks for the hint.
