[PATCH RFC net-next 3/7] net: stmmac: remove redundant WoL option validation

[Russell King (Oracle)]

The core ethtool API validates the WoL options passed from userspace
against the support which the driver reports from its get_wol() method,
returning EINVAL if an unsupported mode is requested.

Therefore, there is no need for stmmac to implement its own validation.
Remove this unnecessary code.

See ethnl_set_wol() in net/ethtool/wol.c and ethtool_set_wol() in
net/ethtool/ioctl.c.
