Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] r8169: improve runtime pm

On my system with two network ports I found that runtime PM didn't
suspend the unused port. Therefore I checked runtime pm in this driver
in somewhat more detail and this series improves runtime pm in general
and solves the mentioned issue.

Tested on a system with RTL8168evl (MAC version 34).

Heiner Kallweit (3):
  r8169: remove unneeded rpm ops in rtl_shutdown
  r8169: improve runtime pm in rtl8169_check_link_status
  r8169: improve runtime pm in general and suspend unused ports
