Subject: [REGRESSION, PATCH] sky2 WOL fix

This patch fixes the regression introduced with 2.6.38 on my
system, the patch is safe as the reintroduced code is only
executed after the motherboard model is identified by dmi.

Probably the dmi_system_id list will grow, a hot candidate
is the ASUS P5LD2 motherboard, see Debian bug #647560

Nick: Try the patch with your system added to dmi_system_id need_legacy.
Feel free to send the output of dmidecode if you cannot do that yourself.

cu,
  Knut
