libnet: Correctly re-initialize the "ip_version" variable each time
I recently noticed that if you start QEMU with two NICs, and only want to boot from the second NIC, SLOF only tries to get an IP address via DHCPv6 instead of trying both, DHCPv4 and DHCPv6. For example: $ qemu-system-ppc64 -nic hubport,hubid=1 \ -nic user,model=virtio,tftp=/.../tftp,bootfile=zImage.pseries [...] Trying to load: from: /vdevice/l-lan@71000002 ... Initializing NIC Reading MAC address from device: 52:54:00:12:34:56 Requesting information via DHCP: 007 Aborted E3001 (net) Could not get IP address Trying to load: from: /pci@800000020000000/ethernet@0 ... Initializing NIC Reading MAC address from device: 52:54:00:12:34:57 Requesting information via DHCPv6: done Using IPv6 address: fec0::5254:ff:fe12:3457 The problem is that we never re-initialize the "ip_version" variable anymore, so once it has been set to 6, it stays at 6 for the second network boot attempt, too. Thus reset the variable to 4 at the beginning of the netload() function.
