Minor typo in the patch description. I assume you mean "ixgb and ixgbe
DCB". Also you might want to mention ixgbe somewhere in the patch

I alredy have a patch to update the ixgbe kernel documentation, please
see the following patch:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/870106/
With my updated documentation patch, the ixgbe hunk of your patch no
longer applies.
