Subject: Add ":force" option to KDUMP_NETCONFIG
References: bsc#1108919
Upstream: merged
Git-commit 4e112a28055a57dbcdf9a72c4bdcf586296ec81a

Make it possible to force network setup in kdump initrd by adding a
":force" suffix to KDUMP_NETCONFIG. This is needed to configure
fence_kdump.

+Network is configured only if needed, e.g. the dump target is on a remote
+machine, or an email notification should be sent. If network is needed by
+something else, such as a custom script used as KDUMP_PRESCRIPT or

 Use a _netdevice:mode_ string to force a specific network device to be used. A
 _netdevice_ is for example "eth0". The _mode_ can be:
