[PATCH v3] net: phy: fix uninitalized WOL parameters in phy_ethtool_get_wol

From: Sebastian Hesselbarth
Date: Tue Mar 11 2014 - 19:03:22 EST


phy_ethtool_get_wol is a helper to get current WOL settings from
a phy device. When using this helper on a PHY without .get_wol
callback, struct ethtool_wolinfo is never set-up correctly and
may contain misleading information about WOL status.

To fix this, always zero relevant fields of struct ethtool_wolinfo
regardless of .get_wol callback availability.

Changelog:
v1->v2:
- clear whole struct ethtool_wolinfo
- check for non-NULL phy_device
v2->v3:
- only clear ->supported and ->wolopts (Suggested by Ben Hutchings)
