Simply replacing netif_running by IFF_UP does not work, it hangs during
close when the device is suspended. This patch is correct, but I have a
v2 patch that moves rtl_runtime_suspend_enable from close to suspend.

This is the evaluated scenario (run = netif_running, up = IFF_UP set):

    # suspended before open
    suspend (run=0, up=0)
    open    (run=1)
    resume  (run=1, up=0)   <-- fixed by patch
    (open ends)

    # while up
    suspend (run=1, up=1)
    resume  (run=1, up=1)   <-- no issue, values match
    suspend (run=1, up=1)

    # close while suspended
    close   (run=0, up=1)
    resume  (run=0, up=1)   <-- fixed in patch v2
    (close cont and ends)   <-- rtl_runtime_suspend_enable removed in v2
    suspend (run=0, up=0)

    # while down
    resume  (run=0, up=0)
    suspend (run=0, up=0)

    # open while suspended, open fails
    open    (run=1)
    resume  (run=1, up=0)   <-- fixed by patch
    (open fails)
    suspend (run=0, up=0)

That is right, this happens behind the scenes:

    # open
    netif_running = true
    open()
    if open succeeded
        set IFF_UP
    else
        netif_running = false

    # close
    netif_running = false
    close()
    clear IFF_UP
