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).

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
