Subject: netconsole: use netpoll_parse_ip_addr in local_ip_store
X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=60cb69214148fbe7fc50239c28e4d052eec6ae61;p=users%2Fwilly%2Flinux.git

netconsole: use netpoll_parse_ip_addr in local_ip_store

Replace manual IP address parsing with a call to netpoll_parse_ip_addr
in local_ip_store(), simplifying the code and reducing the chance of
errors.

Also, remove the pr_err() if the user enters an invalid value in
configfs entries. pr_err() is not the best way to alert user that the
configuration is invalid.
