Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 1/1] tc-testing: Clarify the use of tdc's -d option

The -d command line argument to tdc requires the name of a physical device
on the system where the tests will be run. If -d has not been used, tdc
will skip tests that require a physical device.

This patch is intended to better document what the -d option does and how
it is used.
