Hi Breno,

Adds a selftest that creates two virtual interfaces, assigns one to a new namespace, and assigns IP addresses to both.
It listens on the destination interface using socat and configures a dynamic target on netconsole, pointing to the destination IP address.
The test then checks if the message was received properly on the destination interface.

Changelog:
v6:
- Check for SRC and DST ip before starting the test (Jakub)
- Revert the printk configuration at the end of the test (Jakub)
- Fix the modprobe stderr redirection (Jakub)
Thank you for the v6! It looks good to me:

Out of curiosity: the DSTIP is only set in the new netns, but I guess that will be an issue if it is also set on the host (or elsewhere with the same MAC address), hence this check here? (In any case, it sounds safer, it can stay)
echo "SKIP: IPs already in use. Skippig it" >&2
Skippig: is it because netconsole is vegetarian?
(no need for a v7 just for that of course ;) )
Cheers, Matt
