  • Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
    '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
    decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

    This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
    I also fixed the indentation.

    There are a variety of indentation styles found.

    a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
    b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
    c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
    d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
    e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation)
    f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
    g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

    In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
    following commend:

    $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

  • Since the netlink option for DCB is necessary to actually be useful,
    simplified the Kconfig option. In addition, added useful help text for the
    Kconfig option.

  • This adds support for Data Center Bridging (DCB) features in the ixgbe
    driver and adds an rtnetlink interface for configuring DCB to the
    kernel. The DCB feature support included are Priority Grouping (PG) -
    which allows bandwidth guarantees to be allocated to groups to traffic
    based on the 802.1q priority, and Priority Based Flow Control (PFC) -
    which introduces a new MAC control PAUSE frame which works at
    granularity of the 802.1p priority instead of the link (IEEE 802.3x).
