There are three occurrences of '(nreverse (face-list))': one in 
facemenu-complete-face-list, which seems to date from the 1990s, one in 
x-create-frame-with-faces, which was added by e3b8ddd500 "to handle subtle 
semantic change to how frame faces propagate, which otherwise breaks frame 
creation with reverse video enabled (bug#41200)", and the third one in 
'face-set-after-frame-default'.

The comment there is definitely outdated and should be removed, but given 
that '(nreverse (face-list))' is placed in a dolist whose body starts with 
'(face-spec-recalc face frame)', like in x-create-frame-with-faces, I'm 
not sure the nreverse can be removed without introducing a subtle bug. 
It is probably safer to leave the code unchanged.
