After some research it apperas that the forcedeth driver, which I use, has had issues with reverse mac addresses in other contexts. A guess is that the driver attempts to correct the address byte order on boot up, but fails to restore on suspend, and therefore reverses the corrected address on resume. I've tried to look up who maintains the driver but found nothing in the driver source files or MAINTAINERS file from the kernel source.
