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.

---help---
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 Cirrus cards. If you say Y, you will be asked
for your specific card in the following questions.
if NET_VENDOR_CIRRUS
config CS89x0
tristate "CS89x0 support"
depends on ISA || EISA || ARM
---help---
Support for CS89x0 chipset based Ethernet cards. If you have a
network (Ethernet) card of this type, say Y and read the file
<file:Documentation/networking/cs89x0.txt>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
will be called cs89x0.
config CS89x0_PLATFORM
bool "CS89x0 platform driver support" if HAS_IOPORT_MAP
default !HAS_IOPORT_MAP
depends on CS89x0
help
Say Y to compile the cs89x0 driver as a platform driver. This
makes this driver suitable for use on certain evaluation boards
such as the iMX21ADS.
If you are unsure, say N.
config EP93XX_ETH
tristate "EP93xx Ethernet support"
depends on ARM && ARCH_EP93XX
select MII
help
This is a driver for the ethernet hardware included in EP93xx CPUs.
Say Y if you are building a kernel for EP93xx based devices.
config MAC89x0
tristate "Macintosh CS89x0 based ethernet cards"
depends on MAC
---help---
Support for CS89x0 chipset based Ethernet cards. If you have a
Nubus or LC-PDS network (Ethernet) card of this type, say Y here.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. This module will
be called mac89x0.
