Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 2/5] netconsole: move netpoll_parse_ip_addr()
 earlier for reuse

Move netpoll_parse_ip_addr() earlier in the file to be reused in
other functions, such as local_ip_store(). This avoids duplicate
address parsing logic and centralizes validation for both IPv4
and IPv6 string input.

No functional changes intended.
