I have not really considered runtime PM before, aren't the ethtool operations 
actually broken with runtime PM enabled? Or does the ethtool core take care of 
waking devices (which I doubt)? I don't see any attempt to wake devices in the 
r8169 ethtool operations.

I am not trying to hide details, before I send the third revision of third 
commit message, what other details may I have overseen? If you want to, you 
can also create a patch with an appropriate commit message, I don't mind.

Peter
