The e100_resume() function should be calling netif_device_detach and
free_irq. Could you try the following (compile tested) patch?
I just fixed suspend/shutdown for e100 in 2.6.19, not sure why the problem still shows up. Since it's a driver/net issue, you should CC netdev on it tho, otherwise it might go unnoticed.
Thanks for adding the CC
I'll open up the can-o-worms on this issue and see what's up with it.

I'm not so sure that this patch is OK, and I wonder why it stopped working, because I spent quite some time fixing it only a few months ago. Did swsup change again? sigh...

I may well be wrong (It appears that most of the time I am :)), but the
unbalanced netif_device_attach (in resume) looks suspicious. resume()
also calls request_irq, so calling free_irq on suspend seemed logical.

I just tested the patch and looked it over again. The patch works good and indeed fixes the problem, and netconsole works great. It even shows much of the suspend/resume over the wire, something which I can't remember seeing before with netconsole. reboot -f also works OK.

I'll push the patch upstream, thanks!
