Andreas Henriksson 3a9e4821b6 document promote_secondaries
Write something about the tweak to enable promoting secondary addresses
instead of deleting them together with the primary address as discussed
in this thread on the netdev mailing list:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg52294.html

The claim that this is supported since 2.6.15 is based on looking at
changes to net/ipv4/devinet.c in the linux-2.6 git tree:

PJ Waskiewicz e9acc2420c Update various classifiers' help output for expected CLASSID syntax
update: Fix the spelling of "hexidecimal"

This updates the help output to specify that CLASSID should be hexidecimal.
This makes sure that a user entering "flowid 1:10" gets his flow put into
band 15 (0x10) and knows why.

Tomas Janousek e17b7337f1 Correct documentation regarding PROMISC and ALLMULTI.
The ip util would happily change these flags, it's just not recommended.
Reflect that in the doc.

The behaviour of ifconfig is exactly the same as of ip, delete the note about
it.
