[PATCH net-next v2 3/9] netconsole: move push_ipv6() from netpoll

push_ipv6() builds the IPv6 header for netconsole's UDP packets. Its only caller, netpoll_send_udp(), now lives in netconsole, so the helper can move there as a file-static function. Drop its EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL and remove the prototype from include/linux/netpoll.h.
