[NET]: move config options out to individual protocols
Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols.
With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a
good basis for further re-structuring.
The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is
fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several
"depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair.
Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are
small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed
out where they belongs.

9 | ATM is a high-speed networking technology for Local Area Networks | ||
10 | and Wide Area Networks. It uses a fixed packet size and is | ||
11 | connection oriented, allowing for the negotiation of minimum | ||
12 | bandwidth requirements. | ||
13 | |||
14 | In order to participate in an ATM network, your Linux box needs an | ||
15 | ATM networking card. If you have that, say Y here and to the driver | ||
16 | of your ATM card below. | ||
17 | |||
18 | Note that you need a set of user-space programs to actually make use | ||
19 | of ATM. See the file <file:Documentation/networking/atm.txt> for | ||
20 | further details. | ||

26 | Classical IP over ATM for PVCs and SVCs, supporting InARP and | ||
27 | ATMARP. If you want to communication with other IP hosts on your ATM | ||
28 | network, you will typically either say Y here or to "LAN Emulation | ||
29 | (LANE)" below. | ||

31 | config ATM_CLIP_NO_ICMP | ||
32 | bool "Do NOT send ICMP if no neighbour (EXPERIMENTAL)" | ||
33 | depends on ATM_CLIP | ||
34 | help | ||
35 | Normally, an "ICMP host unreachable" message is sent if a neighbour | ||
36 | cannot be reached because there is no VC to it in the kernel's | ||
37 | ATMARP table. This may cause problems when ATMARP table entries are | ||
38 | briefly removed during revalidation. If you say Y here, packets to | ||
39 | such neighbours are silently discarded instead. | ||

44 | help | ||
45 | LAN Emulation emulates services of existing LANs across an ATM | ||
46 | network. Besides operating as a normal ATM end station client, Linux | ||
47 | LANE client can also act as an proxy client bridging packets between | ||
48 | ELAN and Ethernet segments. You need LANE if you want to try MPOA. | ||

53 | help | ||
54 | Multi-Protocol Over ATM allows ATM edge devices such as routers, | ||
55 | bridges and ATM attached hosts establish direct ATM VCs across | ||
56 | subnetwork boundaries. These shortcut connections bypass routers | ||
57 | enhancing overall network performance. | ||

62 | help | ||
63 | ATM PVCs can carry ethernet PDUs according to rfc2684 (formerly 1483) | ||
64 | This device will act like an ethernet from the kernels point of view, | ||
65 | with the traffic being carried by ATM PVCs (currently 1 PVC/device). | ||
66 | This is sometimes used over DSL lines. If in doubt, say N. | ||

71 | help | ||
72 | This is an experimental mechanism for users who need to terminating a | ||
73 | large number of IP-only vcc's. Do not enable this unless you are sure | ||
74 | you know what you are doing. | ||
