ff237c89e4 Start to unravel some of the mess in the Ethernet NIC section. The
original hardware list was mostly organized by driver except for the
case of NICs by Intel, DEC, and 3Com, whose NICs tended to be
organized by manufacturer.  Most of these entries are now organized by
driver, except for a few 3Com NICs; also the multitude of ed(4)
drivers needs to be coalesced.

While I'm here, fix a markup glitch in the ISDN section that caused
any non-i386 hardware list to be incorrectly numbered.
