Originally added under drivers/acpi/apei because the only user was in that

Since CPER is defined in the UEFI specification - the logical home for

dmi_alloc is either a trivial front-end to kzalloc, and kzalloc already
does a dump_stack() when OOM, or for x86, dmi_alloc uses extend_brk
which BUGs when unsuccessful.
So we can remove all 6 such log messages in the dmi_scan driver, to
shrink the binary size (by 528 bytes on x86_64.)

systems. Add support for exact string matching using strcmp() in addition
to the substring matching using strstr().

.matches = {
DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "Intel"),
DMI_EXACT_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "D510MO"),

Merge tag 'please-pull-pstore' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux
Pull pstore update from Tony Luck:
"Fixes for pstore for 3.11 merge window"
* tag 'please-pull-pstore' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux:
efivars: If pstore_register fails, free unneeded pstore buffer
acpi: Eliminate console msg if pstore.backend excludes ERST
pstore: Return unique error if backend registration excluded by kernel param
pstore: Fail to unlink if a driver has not defined pstore_erase
pstore/ram: remove the power of buffer size limitation
pstore/ram: avoid atomic accesses for ioremapped regions
efi, pstore: Cocci spatch "memdup.spatch"
Header size is needed to distinguish between header and the dump data.
Incorporate the addition of new argument (hsize) in the pstore write
callback.

This is patch 3/3 of a patch set that cleans up pstore_register failure paths.
If efivars fails to register with pstore, there is no point to keeping
the 4 KB buffer around. It's only used by the pstore read/write routines.

Pull VFS updates from Al Viro,
Misc cleanups all over the place, mainly wrt /proc interfaces (switch
create_proc_entry to proc_create(), get rid of the deprecated
create_proc_read_entry() in favor of using proc_create_data() and
seq_file etc).
7kloc removed.

Pull x86/efi changes from Peter Anvin:
"The bulk of these changes are cleaning up the efivars handling and
breaking it up into a tree of files. There are a number of fixes as
well.
The entire changeset is pretty big, but most of it is code movement.
Several of these commits are quite new; the history got very messed up
due to a mismerge with the urgent changes for rc8 which completely
broke IA64, and so Ingo requested that we rebase it to straighten it
out."
