WOL with forcedeth broken sincef55c21fd9a92a444e55ad1ca4e4732d56661bf2e

[Philipp Matthias Hahn]

Hello!

Somewhere between 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 WOL stopped working on my MS-7350
motherboard with an "nVidia Corporation MCP51 Ethernet Controller (rev a3)".
	"etherwake 00:19:db:f2:e1:35" did not work
	"etherwake 35:e1:f2:db:19:00" did work
Since I did a BIOS update during the same time window I (wrongly) put
the fault on the BIOS. (See /sys/class/dmi/id/modalias for yourself:
dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvrV1.7:bd07/29/2008:svnMSI:pnMS-7350:pvr1.0:rvnMSI:rnMS-7350:rvr1.0:cvnToBeFilledByO.E.M.:ct3:cvrToBeFilledByO.E.M.:
)

Today I finally found the time to test various old versions of
"drivers/net/forcedeth.c" and also did a "git-bisect v2.6.26 v2.6.27"
which lead to the following culprit:

    forcedeth: call restore mac addr in nv_shutdown path

    |    [netdrvr] forcedeth: setup wake-on-lan before shutting down
    |
    |    When hibernating in 'shutdown' mode, after saving the image the suspend hook
    |    is not called again.
    |    However, if the device is in promiscous mode, wake-on-lan will not work.
    |    This adds a shutdown hook to setup wake-on-lan before the final shutdown.

    my servers with nvidia ck804 and mcp55 will reverse mac address with kexec.
    
    it turns out that we need to restore the mac addr in nv_shutdown().

Reverting that patch on top of drivers/net/forcedeth.c from 2.6.28.2
resolves the problem for me.
I DON'T use kexec, just simple poweroff.
