Hi Sam,

I tested this on 2.6.13-rc2, using menuconfig, xconfig, and
gconfig, with various ARCH=arches.

Looking good to me, but I have one small change request.

Can the NETPOLL options that are under
  Networking support  + Networking options
(that depend on NETCONSOLE) and the NETCONSOLE option that is under
  Device Drivers + Network device support
be moved to the same area?  I don't really care which area,
but it's a hassle to have to move between them to enable/disable
them.

I also think that there is some room for more consistency in
the presentation of similar Network device categories, but
maybe that (other) menuconfig patch will address this after
your patch is merged, since that isn't what this patch was
addressing.
