More exactly, I find the problem in 3.0 stable tree, and fix it
for 3.0 stable tree first, then re test and debug for mainline,
e23739b4ade80a3a7f87198f008f6c44a7cbc9fd, v3.7-rc7-51-ge23739b.

I found the mainline's r8169 works the same as realtek's driver,
the first time don't work, but it works after reboot, the reason
is the pci driver's shutdown don't call rtl_rar_set in 3.0 stable
tree but the mainline does.

Thanks.
