ethtool says:

           wol p|u|m|b|a|g|s|f|d...
                  Sets Wake-on-LAN options.  Not all devices support this.  The argument to this  option  is  a
                  string of characters specifying which options to enable.
                  p   Wake on PHY activity
                  u   Wake on unicast messages
                  m   Wake on multicast messages
                  b   Wake on broadcast messages
                  a   Wake on ARP
                  g   Wake on MagicPacket™
                  s   Enable SecureOn™ password for MagicPacket™
                  f   Wake on filter(s)
                  d   Disable  (wake  on  nothing).  This option
                      clears all previous options.

So why do we need a DT property?
