netconsole: resume previously deactivated target

Attempt to resume a previously deactivated target when the associated
interface comes back (NETDEV_REGISTER) or when it changes name
(NETDEV_CHANGENAME) by calling netpoll_setup on the device.

Depending on how the target was setup (by mac or interface name), the
corresponding field is compared with the device being brought up. Targets
that match the incoming device, are scheduled for resume on a workqueue.

Resuming happens on a workqueue as we can't execute netpoll_setup in the
context of the netdev event. A standalone workqueue (as opposed to the
global one) is used to allow for proper cleanup process during
netconsole module cleanup as we need to be able to flush all pending
work before traversing the target list given that targets are temporarily
removed from the list during resume_target.

Target transitions to STATE_DISABLED in case of failures resuming it to
avoid retrying the same target indefinitely.
