It would be nice if we allow spaces in netconsole parameters,
otherwise we get weird results if there are spaces in it.

After this patch, we will allow things like:
"netconsole= @192.168.0.1/eth0 , 66666@xxxxxxxxxxx/".

That kernel command line looks absolutely awful, not
better.

Sorry I'm not applying this.

The problem is that the dst port is 0 when I even use:

"netconsole=@xxxxxxxxxxx/eth0, 66666@xxxxxxxxxxx/"

This is awful too? I don't think so...
