This patch extends the info shown thru /proc/net/pnp, making more ipv4
autoconf results accessible to user.  The variables added are:

ic_myaddr
ic_netmask
ic_gateway
root_server_addr
root_server_path
ic_dev_name

This should make diskless clients more happy, as their startup scripts
would have more information.

Please apply the patch, would you consider it useful.
