Re: [PATCH -mm 8/9] netconsole: Update documentation for dynamicreconfigurability

Hi Satyam,

BTW I did some testing myself, and have found another *embarrassing* bug:
if netconsole is loaded _without_ specifying any "netconsole=" parameter,
module is still kept loaded, but on unloading configfs_unregister_...()
obviously panics! :-) This should've been found by me earlier, just that
I never tested without specifying the parameter to modprobe :-(

I tested your patches on the x86 architecture and report the results.
It is no problem except for the above problem.
I think that it is useful to use configfs(especially, mkdir and rmdir because of adding/removing netconsole_target).

I am going to test the your next iteration patches on x86 and IA64 architecutures.

Thanks
