OK, I've fixed the wrapping and removed the CONFIG_ARM restriction. I've also did my
best to modify the C style to conform to the comments.
I noticed that the patch is getting ignored by majordomo due to its size >100K.
Should it be broken up somehow to allow posting to the lists?

This patch contains the following possible updates:
- let FORCEDETH no longer depend on EXPERIMENTAL
- remove the "Reverse Engineered" from the option text:
for the user it's important which hardware the driver supports, not
how it was developed

Recent patches for the mv643xx_eth driver now use the MII interface
library. Select MII so it gets built when that driver is selected.

The sk98lin driver was changed a while ago to remove support for the

Make the whole netdevices menu depend on NET, rather than having an empty
submenu when networking is disabled.
Indeed, almost the whole body of the menu was surrounded by if NETDEVICES,
and what was outside depended on NETCONSOLE which is inside the menu.

Some users have commented that it is unclear which driver they should be
using for their Marvell/SysKonnect network adapter, and which ones
are/aren't interchangable.
This patch attempts to reduce the confusion.

*) mark as "EXPERIMENTAL" various items that either aren't very stable or
that are actively crashing the setup of users which don't really need them
(i.e. HIGHMEM and 3-level pagetables on x86 - nobody needs either,
everybody reports "I'm using it and getting trouble").
*) move net/Kconfig near to the rest of network configurations, and
drivers/block/Kconfig near "Block layer" submenu.
*) it's useless and doesn't work well to force NETDEVICES on and to disable
the prompt like it's done. Better remove the attempt, and change that to a
simple "default y if UML".
*) drop the warning about "report problems about HPPFS" - it's redundant
anyway, as that's the usual procedure, and HPPFS users are especially
technical (i.e. they know reporting bugs is _good_).

A new device to do intermidiate functional block in a system shared
manner. To use the new functionality, you need to turn on
qos/classifier actions.
The new functionality can be grouped as:
1) qdiscs/policies that are per device as opposed to system wide. ifb
allows for a device which can be redirected to thus providing an
impression of sharing.
2) Allows for queueing incoming traffic for shaping instead of
dropping.
Packets are redirected to this device using tc/action mirred redirect
construct. If they are sent to it by plain routing instead then they
will merely be dropped and the stats would indicate that.
