2494 The network device frontend driver allows the kernel to
2495 access network devices exported exported by a virtual
2496 machine containing a physical network device driver. The
2497 frontend driver is intended for unprivileged guest domains;
2498 if you are compiling a kernel for a Xen guest, you almost
2499 certainly want to enable this.
