================
>Description:

The ed(4) manual has an inadequate synopsis: "device ed"

Also, the manual doesn't say that "device miibus" is also needed.
================
>How-To-Repeat:
n/a
================
>Fix:

Change the synosis to:

    device   ed# at isa? port # irq # iomem #

Add this new first paragraph to the "Caveats" section:

    Use of this device requires the use of "device miibus".
