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 Xircom cards. If you say Y, you will be asked for
your specific card in the following questions.
if NET_VENDOR_XIRCOM
config PCMCIA_XIRC2PS
tristate "Xircom 16-bit PCMCIA support"
depends on PCMCIA
---help---
Say Y here if you intend to attach a Xircom 16-bit PCMCIA (PC-card)
Ethernet or Fast Ethernet card to your computer.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
called xirc2ps_cs. If unsure, say N.
