document the use of the driver and are not necessary if you install

Use /sys/module/aoe/parameters/aoe_iflist (or better, the driver
option discussed below) instead of /dev/etherd/interfaces to limit
AoE traffic to the network interfaces in the given
whitespace-separated list. Unlike the old character device, the
sysfs entry can be read from as well as written to.
It's helpful to trigger discovery after setting the list of allowed
interfaces. The aoetools package provides an aoe-discover script
for this purpose. You can also directly use the
/dev/etherd/discover special file described above.
DRIVER OPTIONS
There is a boot option for the built-in aoe driver and a
corresponding module parameter, aoe_iflist. Without this option,
all network interfaces may be used for ATA over Ethernet. Here is a
usage example for the module parameter.
