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 IBM devices. If you say Y, you will be asked for
your specific card in the following questions.

config MACE
tristate "MACE (Power Mac ethernet) support"
depends on PPC_PMAC && PPC32
select CRC32
---help---
Power Macintoshes and clones with Ethernet built-in on the
motherboard will usually use a MACE (Medium Access Control for
Ethernet) interface. Say Y to include support for the MACE chip.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called mace.
config MACE_AAUI_PORT
bool "Use AAUI port instead of TP by default"
depends on MACE
---help---
Some Apple machines (notably the Apple Network Server) which use the
MACE ethernet chip have an Apple AUI port (small 15-pin connector),
instead of an 8-pin RJ45 connector for twisted-pair ethernet. Say
Y here if you have such a machine. If unsure, say N.
The driver will default to AAUI on ANS anyway, and if you use it as
a module, you can provide the port_aaui=0|1 to force the driver.
config BMAC
tristate "BMAC (G3 ethernet) support"
depends on PPC_PMAC && PPC32
select CRC32
---help---
Say Y for support of BMAC Ethernet interfaces. These are used on G3
computers.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called bmac.
config MACMACE
bool "Macintosh (AV) onboard MACE ethernet"
depends on MAC
select CRC32
---help---
Support for the onboard AMD 79C940 MACE Ethernet controller used in
the 660AV and 840AV Macintosh. If you have one of these Macintoshes
say Y here.
