Because I added WOL support xl(4) in the past I'm interested in
knowing whether that change broke your controller when BIOS enables
WOL.
If you boot with bootverbose, do you see a message like
"No auxiliary remote wakeup connector!" from xl(4)?
(of course, WOL should be enabled in BIOS before boot)
Also show the output of 'pciconf -lcbv".
