[PATCH net-next v3 06/13] selftests: Use separate stdout and stderr buffers in nettest

[David Ahern]

From: David Ahern <dsah...@gmail.com>

When a single instance of nettest is doing both client and
server modes, stdout and stderr messages can get interlaced
and become unreadable. Allocate a new set of buffers for the
child process handling server mode.
