Based on patch by Patrick McHardy.
Add a new option, NET_SCH_FIFO, which provides a simple fifo qdisc
without requiring CONFIG_NET_SCHED.
The d80211 stack needs a generic fifo qdisc for WME. At present it
uses net/d80211/fifo_qdisc.c which is functionally equivalent to
sch_fifo.c. This patch will allow the d80211 stack to remove
net/d80211/fifo_qdisc.c and use sch_fifo.c instead.

nfmark is being used in various subsystems and has become
the defacto mark field for all kinds of packets. Therefore
it makes sense to rename it to `mark' and remove the
dependency on CONFIG_NETFILTER.

No, they were there before too, but you have to go up one level to see
them.
It's better in 2.6.15-rc1-git5, but the menu structure is still a little
messed up, the patch below properly indents all menu entries.

Make "QoS and/or fair queueing" have its own menu, it's too big to be
inlined into "Network options". Remove the obsolete NET_QOS option.
Automatically select NET_CLS if needed. Do the same for NET_ESTIMATOR
but allow it to be selected manually for statistical purposes. Add
comments to separate queueing from classification. Fix dependencies
and ordering of classifiers. Improve descriptions/help texts and
remove outdated pieces.

Opterons with frequency scaling have fully unsynchronized TSCs
running at different frequencies, so using TSCs there is not a good idea.
Also some other x86 boxes have this problem. gettimeofday should be good
enough, so just disable it.

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.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
