Return the cached statistics in case the interface is down. There should be no drawback to this, as cached statistics are updated in ravb_close(). In order to avoid accessing the IP registers while the IP is runtime suspended pm_runtime_active() check was introduced. The device runtime PM usage counter has been incremented to avoid disabling the device clocks while the check is in progress (if any). The commit prepares the code for the addition of runtime PM support.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
