lsxl: unset ncip for rescue mode
Instead of using the serverip we get from the DHCP server, implicitly use the broadcast address, which is automatically set when no ncip environment variable is set. That way it isn't necessary to use a special DHCP configuration to set the netconsole peer. Signed-off-by: Michael Walle <michael@walle.cc> Cc: Prafulla Wadaskar <prafulla@marvell.com>
