[NET] netconsole: Simplify boot/module option setup logic
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <[email protected]>. Presently, boot/module parameters are set up quite differently for the case of built-in netconsole (__setup() -> obsolete_checksetup() -> netpoll_parse_options() -> strlen(config) == 0 in init_netconsole()) vs modular netconsole (module_param_string() -> string copied to the config variable -> strlen(config) != 0 init_netconsole() -> netpoll_parse_options()). This patch makes both of them similar by doing exactly the equivalent of a module_param_string() in option_setup() also -- just copying the param string passed from the kernel command line into "config" variable. So, strlen(config) != 0 in both cases, and netpoll_parse_options() is always called from init_netconsole(), thus making the setup logic for both cases similar. Now, option_setup() is only ever called / used for the built-in case, so we put it inside a #ifndef MODULE, otherwise gcc will complain about option_setup() being "defined but not used". Also, the "configured" variable is redundant with this patch and hence removed.
