When PHY drivers gets converted to the new model, we'll have to look at
how the .get_wol() behave WRT how they fill-in their wolopts.

The Broadcom driver for example may not set w.wolopts to 0 :

  https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.17.4/source/drivers/net/phy/broadcom.c#L1121

You'd probably end-up with garbage here then. But not blocking for your series.

As far as my current WoL knowedge goes, this looks good to me.
