Paul Gortmaker 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.

If you have a network (Ethernet) card belonging to this class, say Y.
Note that the answer to this question doesn't directly affect the
kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
the questions about Sun network interfaces. If you say Y, you will be
asked for your specific card in the following questions.

config HAPPYMEAL
tristate "Sun Happy Meal 10/100baseT support"
depends on (SBUS || PCI)
select CRC32
---help---
This driver supports the "hme" interface present on most Ultra
systems and as an option on older Sbus systems. This driver supports
both PCI and Sbus devices. This driver also supports the "qfe" quad
100baseT device available in both PCI and Sbus configurations.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called sunhme.
config SUNBMAC
tristate "Sun BigMAC 10/100baseT support"
depends on SBUS
select CRC32
---help---
This driver supports the "be" interface available as an Sbus option.
This is Sun's older 100baseT Ethernet device.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called sunbmac.
config SUNQE
tristate "Sun QuadEthernet support"
depends on SBUS
select CRC32
---help---
This driver supports the "qe" 10baseT Ethernet device, available as
an Sbus option. Note that this is not the same as Quad FastEthernet
"qfe" which is supported by the Happy Meal driver instead.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called sunqe.
config SUNGEM
tristate "Sun GEM support"
depends on PCI
select CRC32
select SUNGEM_PHY
---help---
Support for the Sun GEM chip, aka Sun GigabitEthernet/P 2.0. See also
<http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19455-01/806-3985-10/806-3985-10.pdf>.
config CASSINI
tristate "Sun Cassini support"
depends on PCI
select CRC32
---help---
Support for the Sun Cassini chip, aka Sun GigaSwift Ethernet. See also
<http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19113-01/giga.ether.pci/817-4341-10/817-4341-10.pdf>.
config SUNVNET
tristate "Sun Virtual Network support"
depends on SUN_LDOMS
---help---
Support for virtual network devices under Sun Logical Domains.
config NIU
tristate "Sun Neptune 10Gbit Ethernet support"
depends on PCI
select CRC32
---help---
This enables support for cards based upon Sun's
Neptune chipset.
