[PATCH net-next v3 6/7] netconsole: move struct inet_addr into netconsole.c

From: Gustavo Luiz Duarte

Date: Fri Aug 14 2026 - 15:32:52 EST


The struct inet_addr lives in netpoll.h, but since commit a1116396476f
("netconsole: move local_ip/remote_ip/ipv6 to netconsole_target") the
only user is netconsole. Move the definition into netconsole.c
