    - vxge driver help text file.
    
    - No change from previous submission.
    
    - Changes in previous submissions -
      Removed the performance tuning section with instructions to disable
      time stamps and change sysctl settings - Reported by Dave Miller
      General clean up.
     - Removed tx/rx_pause, exec_mode, tx_steering_type, rx_steering_type, gro,
       intr_type, rx & tx max_indicate_pkts and exec_mode loadable parameters. The
       driver default settings work well in most if not all cases. Another patch
       to configure these parameters with ethtool will be released in the future -
       Reported by Stephen Hemminger.
    - Incorporated following fixes based on comments from Ben Hutchings
            Removed references to earlier kernel versions.
            Removed sections that are similar for all drivers -
                    Load/Unload
                    Identifying the adapter/interface
                    Boot time configuration
            Removed loadable parameter -
                    NAPI - Napi is always enabled.
                    rx_steering_type & ring_blocks - The driver default settings
                    work well in most if not all cases. Another patch to configure
                    these parameters with ethtool will be released in the future.
            Removed ethtool support section - No need to duplicate ethtool
                    docs here.
            Removed Known Issue on SUSE 9 - Doesn't apply when using a
                    current kernel.
            Removed Common Problems section - These don't apply to in-tree modules.
            Removed Available Downloads section - Not sure this belongs in-tree.
            Removed Copyright information - This notice doesn't belong in
                    the kernel.
