Subject: [PATCH] netconsole: fix sysdata_release_enabled_show checking wrong
 flag

sysdata_release_enabled_show() checks SYSDATA_TASKNAME instead of
SYSDATA_RELEASE, causing the configfs release_enabled attribute to
reflect the taskname feature state rather than the release feature
state. This is a copy-paste error from the adjacent
sysdata_taskname_enabled_show() function.

The corresponding _store function already uses the correct
SYSDATA_RELEASE flag.
