Subject: [PATCH] RDS is not Radio Data System

Hi!

Getting prompt "The RDS Protocol" (RDS) is not too helpful, and it is
easily confused with Radio Data System (which we may want to support
in kernel, too).

I wonder if option should be named NET_RDS, instead?

And this sounds like a good idea:

(Plus, we normally have "module will be called foobar" and if unsure
say X. What happened to those?)
