This is copy-paste by previous developers which I did not validate.

So I may wish to drop both local-mac-address property
(should be automatic by u-boot),

and drop the magic-packet here.

Interrupts were tested, WoL was not.

We have never tested any off states where the phy was still on.
Instead the board is designed to be always-in with supercap to cover
glitches and/or ensure graceful shutdown.

So I suggest dropping any traces of WoL.
