Re: [PATCH net-next v2 4/6] netconsole: reject a target mixing IPv4 and IPv6 addresses

The local_ip and remote_ip configfs attributes are written independently
and nothing stops a user from mixing ipv4 and ipv6. This leads to an
ipv4 address being zero-extended into an ipv6 header or an ipv6 address
being truncated to its first 4 bytes for an ipv4 header.

The command-line parser already refuses such a mismatch. This adds a
similar check when a dynamic target is being enabled.
