Do you mean I should add a new option to netconsole line? This is the
current line format today:

	[+][src-port]@[src-ip]/[<dev>],[tgt-port]@<tgt-ip>/[tgt-macaddr]

If that is the case, I suppose I want to add something at the beginning
of format, that specify that uname should be sent. What about something
as?

	[u][+][src-port]@[src-ip]/[<dev>],[tgt-port]@<tgt-ip>/[tgt-macaddr]

Thanks!
