I wonder if it is worth simplifying this by having prueth_emac_start()
check if it's 2nd parameter is NULL. Likewise for prueth_emac_stop().

Branching to stop may result in calls to prueth_emac_stop() which does not
seem symmetrical with the condition on prueth->emacs_initialized for calls
to prueth_emac_start() above.

If so, is this intended?
