Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 2/6] netconsole: convert 'enabled' flag to enum
for clearer state management
This patch refactors the netconsole driver's target enabled state from a
simple boolean to an explicit enum (`target_state`).
This allow the states to be expanded to a new state in the upcoming
change.
