I don't think the enic driver has anything to do with Mark Everett
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Man_Called_E).  Fix the Kconfig
description.

Sheesh, Cisco just does not have any sense of humor :)

As I explained to Scott (in private email, unfortunately, IIRC), I did 
that so that it would fit in the list alphabetized -- Scott placed it in 
the section with the E's, not the C's.

Furthermore, "Cisco 10G ethernet nic" is a vague description if Cisco 
ever plans to sell another ethernet product.  Will the next one be 
"Cisco 10G Ethernet NIC, the sequel"?  :)

If you insist on such an incredibly boring description, at least put it 
into the section with the 'C' not the 'E'.

	Jeff

Hey I thought name-checking Mark Everett in the changelog was kind of funny.

Unfortunately Dave already applied my patch (and somehow dropped the
"From: Scott" part of my email so I get blamed ;).  I didn't realize the
list was alphabetized -- I guess we should add another patch to put this
in the right place in the list?

I guess we're just counting on being on to 100G ethernet by the time we
do another NIC... but seriously we should probably figure out what the
marketing name will be and improve the help text.
