Oh, hmm. I noticed this about a year ago after a kernel upgrade, and
threw the below into /etc/acpi/resume.d/91-openvpn.sh to fix the issue
on resume. It was supposed to be temporary until I could track down
whether this was a kernel issue or whatnot, but then I sorta, uhm,
forgot to report it. But yeah, I see the same issue -- after resume,
the TUN device has disappeared, and openvpn needs to be told to close
and reopen for it to work again.

#!/bin/sh
# poke openvpn to rebuild the tunnel
if pidof openvpn > /dev/null; then
	killall -SIGHUP openvpn
fi
