DCB: fix kconfig option

Since the netlink option for DCB is necessary to actually be useful, simplified the Kconfig option. In addition, added useful help text for the Kconfig option. Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>

-	  This option turns on the netlink interface
-	  (dcbnl) for Data Center Bridging capable devices.
+	  This enables support for configuring Data Center Bridging (DCB)
+	  features on DCB capable Ethernet adapters via rtnetlink.  Say 'Y'
+	  if you have a DCB capable Ethernet adapter which supports this
+	  interface and you are connected to a DCB capable switch.
+
+	  DCB is a collection of Ethernet enhancements which allow DCB capable
+	  NICs and switches to support network traffic with differing
+	  requirements (highly reliable, no drops vs. best effort vs. low
+	  latency) to co-exist on Ethernet.
+
+	  DCB features include:
+	    Enhanced Transmission Selection (aka Priority Grouping) - provides a
+	      framework for assigning bandwidth guarantees to traffic classes.
+	    Priority-based Flow Control (PFC) - a MAC control pause frame which
+	      works at the granularity of the 802.1p priority instead of the
+	      link (802.3x).
 
 	  If unsure, say N.
