I don't think that drivers should call pnp_start_dev() on resume. All drivers 
would need to call it as all PnP cards are disabled after boot. No driver 
does that currently.

3c509 driver doesn't seem to register as pnp_card_driver so that's probably 
why it's not enable after resume. I guess that more ISA PnP drivers have this 
problem. I have some other PnP network and sound cards so I'll test them.
