ix.4: describe better
+ add controller name to title for search keywords - remove "for the freebsd operating system" from title/search keywords - remove `(R)` from the page title for consistency with other drivers - increase specificity of HARDWARE for inclusion in Release HW Notes - order HARDWARE in reverse chronological so non-eol appear first - s/PCI/PCIe/ MFC after: 3 days Reported by: kbowling (additional hardware supported) Pull Request: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/pull/1494
