Well, I wonder if we can just do something like the appended patch instead and
address the e1000e runtime suspend by calling pci_finish_runtime_suspend()
directly from e1000_runtime_suspend().

While we can revert commit 42eca2302146, that hardly would be progress,
because then the issue it was supposed to address would still need to be
addressed somehow.

Thanks,
