Andre Carvalho 04aeddf2da selftests: netconsole: only restore MAC when it changed on resume
The "mac" bind mode reactivation downs the interface, restores the saved
MAC and renames it to trigger a target resume. This assumes the recreated
interface comes back with a different MAC, which is true under
MACAddressPolicy=none (as on the Netdev CI) but not when MACs are
persistent. In the persistent case netconsole resumes the target on its
own, and the down/restore/rename flow instead drops it and fails the test.

Guard the block on the MAC having actually changed so the test passes
under both policies.
