Jakub Kicinski b255e500c8 net: documentation: build a directory structure for drivers
Documentation/networking/ is full of cryptically named files with
driver documentation.  This makes finding interesting information
at a glance really hard.  Move all those files into a directory
called device_drivers (since not all drivers are for device) and
fix up references.

RFC v0.1 -> RFC v1:
 - also add .txt suffix to the files which are missing it (Quentin)

SMC 9xxxx Driver
Revision 0.12
3/5/96
Copyright 1996 Erik Stahlman
Released under terms of the GNU General Public License.
This file contains the instructions and caveats for my SMC9xxx driver. You
should not be using the driver without reading this file.
Things to note about installation:
1. The driver should work on all kernels from 1.2.13 until 1.3.71.
(A kernel patch is supplied for 1.3.71 )
2. If you include this into the kernel, you might need to change some
options, such as for forcing IRQ.
3. To compile as a module, run 'make' .
Make will give you the appropriate options for various kernel support.
4. Loading the driver as a module :
use: insmod smc9194.o
optional parameters:
io=xxxx : your base address
irq=xx : your irq
ifport=x : 0 for whatever is default
1 for twisted pair
2 for AUI ( or BNC on some cards )
