In order for iflib and the network stack to know about WOL, you need to set the capabilities for WOL in the driver. I didn't see this done in this patch and I don't see it being done in the driver in the tree.

An example of what I'm referring to can be seen in sys/dev/e1000/if_em.c::2630

This lets the stack know that the WOL capabilities are enabled.
