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.

Anish Bhatt 1bb60376cd cxgb4 : Fix build failure in cxgb4 when ipv6 is disabled/not in-built
cxgb4 ipv6 does not guard against ipv6 being disabled, or the standard
ipv6 module vs inbuilt tri-state issue. This was fixed for cxgb4i & iw_cxgb4
but missed for cxgb4.

Ben Hutchings 9e3262e253 cxgb3: Restore dependency on INET
Commit ff33c0e188 ('net: Remove bogus
dependencies on INET') wrongly removed this dependency.  cxgb3 uses
the arp_send() function defined in net/ipv4/arp.c.

Ben Hutchings ff33c0e188 net: Remove bogus dependencies on INET
Various drivers depend on INET because they used to select INET_LRO,
but they have all been converted to use GRO which has no such
dependency.

Jeff Kirsher 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.
