974438fb34 doc: update linux guide for uio_pci_generic use
Since DPDK now has support for the in-tree uio_pci_generic driver,
update the GSG document to reference this module, and to use it
in preference to the igb_uio driver, which is DPDK-specific.

a9bc351cd4 doc: auto-generate date in guides
The index.html file for each of the "guide" docs had a hard-coded
date value in them of June 2014. Rather than update each of these
for each revision, just use the |today| directive to insert the date
at which the document was generated.
