Other PHYs? Yes. WoL is just another interrupt, and any interrupt can
wake the system, so longer as the interrupt controller can actually wake the system.

WOl does not control the interrupt, it is an interrupt source. And you
need to service it as an interrupt. So long as your PMC is also an
interrupt controller, it should all work.
