netconsole: move remote_mac from struct netpoll to netconsole_target
The destination ethernet address is netconsole configuration: no other netpoll user (bonding, team, vlan, bridge, macvlan, dsa) references np->remote_mac, only netconsole's ethernet framing and its configfs/cmdline interface do. Move it into struct netconsole_target and convert push_eth() to take the netconsole_target; netconsole_print_banner() and netconsole_parser_cmdline() already take it. The configfs show/store handlers and alloc_and_init() reach the field directly. No functional change; the remote_mac sysfs attribute is unchanged.
