Please see net/ethtool/ioctl.c::ethtool_set_wol() and
net/ethtool/wol.c::ethnl_set_wol(). Both of these call your set_wol()
method, and then if it was successful, sets
netdev->ethtool->wol_enabled as appropriate. So whatever you do here
will be overwritten by core code.

Maybe an initial patch to remove this prior to moving the code would
be a good idea?
