Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/9] netconsole: move netpoll_local_ip_unset() as netcons_local_ip_unset()
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 08:04:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260724-netconsole_move_more_final-v1-4-a5f7691db81c@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260724-netconsole_move_more_final-v1-0-a5f7691db81c@debian.org>
Move netpoll_local_ip_unset() from netpoll to netconsole and rename it
to netcons_local_ip_unset();
The body is otherwise unchanged, only the comment's setup-function
reference is updated.
