You mean this check to be moved to ravb_set_features_rcar() instead of ravb_set_rx_csum()
as ravb_set_rx_csum() is called in receive path as well which is interface up case.
ON reset mode, anyway we don't get any interrupts so there is no rx.
Then possibility is through set_features??

Cheers,
Biju
