ravb_close() always returns 0, hence the check in ravb_wol_restore() is
pointless (however, we cannot change the prototype of ravb_close() as it
implements the driver's ndo_stop() method).

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static
analysis tool.

Changes in version 2:
- removed no longer used local variable in ravb_wol_restore().
