BTW I did some testing myself, and have found another *embarrassing* bug:
if netconsole is loaded _without_ specifying any "netconsole=" parameter,
module is still kept loaded, but on unloading configfs_unregister_...()
obviously panics! :-) This should've been found by me earlier, just that
I never tested without specifying the parameter to modprobe :-(
Basically that check upfront in init_netconsole() checking if the boot/
module param was provided now becomes unnecessary -- with dynamic
reconfigurability, a user might plausibly want to load netconsole without
specifying any params, but add targets later ...
