138b15ed87 drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTO
This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it.  And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.

However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next.  We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.

No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

94b144a779 net: ethernet: xilinx: Do not use axienet on PPC
Axi ethernet can't be used on PPC because it is
little endian IP and PPC is big endian.
This system can't be designed.

8a3b7a252d drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx: added Xilinx AXI Ethernet driver
This driver adds support for Xilinx 10/100/1000 AXI Ethernet.

It can be used, for instance, on Xilinx boards with a Microblaze
architecture like the ML605.

The patch is against the latest net-next tree and checkpatch clean.

88f07484cc drivers/net/ethernet/*: Enabled vendor Kconfig options
Based on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig's
enable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newly
added NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig.

This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that current
defconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers.  In
addition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not add
any un-expected options.
