Hi Bernard,

Please try to remove useless lines when answering.
I'm digging in the message to find your comments ;)

I think I should keep it as is because I'm only moving sections
and I don't have any right to change an Intel copyright.

Figures 10 to 15 moved in doc/guides/nics/img.

I didn't re-create the references in doc/guides/nics/index.rst nor renumbered
the ones in doc/guides/prog_guide/index.rst.
I think these manual numberings should be removed as it is a pain to update.
Actually I don't really understand what is the usage of such references.
So I suggest to completely remove them or generate them with a script.

Thanks
