net: forcedeth: Fix wake-on-lan regression 

Commit f55c21fd9a ("forcedeth: call
restore mac addr in nv_shutdown path"), which was introduced to fix
the regression tracked at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11358 causes the
wake-on-lan mac to be reversed in the shutdown path.  Apparently the
forcedeth situation is rather messy in that the mac we need to
writeback for a subsequent modprobe to work is exactly the reverse of
what is needed for proper wake-on-lan.

The following patch explains the situation in the comments and
makes the call to nv_restore_mac_addr() conditional (only called if
we are not really going for poweroff).

With the following patch:
shutdown         OK
disk/shutdown    OK
