Subject: netpoll: fix netconsole IPv6 setup
X-Git-Url: http://git.efficios.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=00fe11b3c67dc670fe6391d22f1fe64e7c99a8ec;hp=440b87eac4ca21ccb3f56e7b1f126e0eebcc0f84;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

netpoll: fix netconsole IPv6 setup

Currently, to make netconsole start over IPv6, the source address
needs to be specified. Without a source address, netpoll_parse_options
assumes we're setting up over IPv4 and the destination IPv6 address is
rejected.

Check if the IP version has been forced by a source address before
checking for a version mismatch when parsing the destination address.
