ipconfig: Create /proc/net/ipconfig directory
To allow ipconfig to report IP configuration details to user space processes without cluttering /proc/net, create a new subdirectory /proc/net/ipconfig. All files containing IP configuration details should be written to this directory. Signed-off-by: Chris Novakovic <chris@chrisn.me.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
