net: netconsole: Eliminate redundant setting of enabled field
When disabling a netconsole target, enabled_store() is called with enabled=false. Currently, this results in updating the nt->enabled field twice: 1. Inside the if/else block, with the target_list_lock spinlock held 2. Later, without the target_list_lock This patch eliminates the redundancy by setting the field only once, improving efficiency and reducing potential race conditions.
