Geert Uytterhoeven 0df5f81c48 net: ethernet: Add missing VENDOR to Cadence and Packet Engines symbols
The vendor guard Kconfig symbols for Cadence and Packet Engines use a
"NET_" prefix, while all other vendor guards use a "NET_VENDOR_"
prefix.  Hence make them consistent with the rest, and add the missing
trailing "S" for Packet Engines while at it.

As these options don't directly affect the kernel build, and default to
"y", this change has no impact on kernels built with existing
(def)configs.

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.

Ben Hutchings a1606c7dc6 net: Move MII out from under NET_CORE and hide it
All drivers that select MII also need to select NET_CORE because MII
depends on it.  This is a bit ridiculous because NET_CORE is just a
menu option that doesn't enable any code by itself.

There is also no need for it to be a visible option, since its users
all select it.

Kees Cook 2b86d8729b drivers/net/ethernet/packetengines: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL
The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a
while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the
Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

stephen hemminger 3f2010b2ad packetengines: fix config default
As part of the big network driver reorg, each vendor directory defaults to
yes, so that older config's can migrate correctly. Looks like this one
got missed.

Jeff Kirsher aaba215ca0 MII: fix Kconfig dependencies for MII
MII Kconfig option is apart of the core networking drivers and
by default NET_CORE is enabled so drivers selecting MII will
have MII enabled as well.  It was found using the randconfig
option during testing, MII would be selected but NET_CORE
could be disabled.  This caused a dependency error.

Resolved the dependency by selecting NET_CORE when MII is
selected.
