Why dump this information to the kernel log? And why clear it, in
get_wol. I assume WOL triggers an interrupt? Then dumping the event in
the interrupt handler would make sense. Also clearing the event in the
interrupt handler is probably required, since it is probably a level
interrupt, and you want to avoid a storm. But in get_wol?

Do you need to clear the WOL event here? Could there be an event left
over from the past?
