Currently, each dynamic netconsole_target uses its own separate mutex to synchronize the configuration operations. This patch replaces the per-netconsole_target mutexes with a single mutex - dynamic_netconsole_mutex. The reduced granularity doesn't hurt anything, the code is minutely simpler and this'd allow adding operations which should be synchronized across all dynamic netconsoles.
