The current time will be initially available in the record->time field
for all pstore_read() and pstore_write() calls. Backends can either
update the field during read(), or use the field during write() instead
of fetching time themselves.

Right now, every pass through the EFI variables during erase would build
a copy of the old format variable name. Instead, try each name one time
through the EFI variables list. Additionally bump up the buffer size to
avoid truncation in pathological cases, and wipe the write name buffer.

efi-pstore: Fix write/erase id tracking
Prior to the pstore interface refactoring, the "id" generated during
a backend pstore_write() was only retained by the internal pstore
inode tracking list. Additionally the "part" was ignored, so EFI
would encode this in the id. This corrects the misunderstandings
and correctly sets "id" during pstore_write(), and uses "part"
directly during pstore_erase().

All efivars operations are protected by a spinlock which prevents
interruptions and preemption. This is too restricted, we just need a
lock preventing concurrency.
The idea is to use a semaphore of count 1 and to have two ways of
locking, depending on the context:
- In interrupt context, we call down_trylock(), if it fails we return
an error
- In normal context, we call down_interruptible()
We don't use a mutex here because the mutex_trylock() function must not
be called from interrupt context, whereas the down_trylock() can.

Like zlib compression in pstore, this patch added lzo and lz4
compression support so that users can have more options and better
compression ratio.
The original code treats the compressed data together with the
uncompressed ECC correction notice by using zlib decompress. The
ECC correction notice is missing in the decompression process. The
treatment also makes lzo and lz4 not working. So I treat them
separately by using pstore_decompress() to treat the compressed
data, and memcpy() to treat the uncompressed ECC correction notice.

In generic_id the long int timestamp is multiplied by 100000 and needs
an explicit cast to u64.
Without that the id in the resulting pstore filename is wrong and
userspace may have problems parsing it, but more importantly files in
pstore can never be deleted and may fill the EFI flash (brick device?).
This happens because when generic pstore code wants to delete a file,
it passes the id to the EFI backend which reinterpretes it and a wrong
variable name is attempted to be deleted. There's no error message but
after remounting pstore, deleted files would reappear.

Currently, when mounting pstore file system, a read callback of
efi_pstore driver runs mutiple times as below.
- In the first read callback, scan efivar_sysfs_list from head and pass
a kmsg buffer of a entry to an upper pstore layer.
- In the second read callback, rescan efivar_sysfs_list from the entry
and pass another kmsg buffer to it.
- Repeat the scan and pass until the end of efivar_sysfs_list.
In this process, an entry is read across the multiple read function
calls. To avoid race between the read and erasion, the whole process
above is protected by a spinlock, holding in open() and releasing in
close().
At the same time, kmemdup() is called to pass the buffer to pstore
filesystem during it. And then, it causes a following lockdep warning.
To make the dynamic memory allocation runnable without taking spinlock,
holding off a deletion of sysfs entry if it happens while scanning it
via efi_pstore, and deleting it after the scan is completed.
To implement it, this patch introduces two flags, scanning and deleting,
to efivar_entry.
On the code basis, it seems that all the scanning and deleting logic is
not needed because __efivars->lock are not dropped when reading from the
EFI variable store.
But, the scanning and deleting logic is still needed because an
efi-pstore and a pstore filesystem works as follows.
In case an entry(A) is found, the pointer is saved to psi->data. And
efi_pstore_read() passes the entry(A) to a pstore filesystem by
releasing __efivars->lock.
And then, the pstore filesystem calls efi_pstore_read() again and the
same entry(A), which is saved to psi->data, is used for resuming to scan
a sysfs-list.
So, to protect the entry(A), the logic is needed.

- Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling

but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no
hypervisor) by Gavin Shan.
- I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it
usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with
hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded
processors).
- Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael
Ellerman. This facility allows what is basically "userspace

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.

Seiji reported getting empty dmesg-* files, because the data was never
actually read in efi_pstore_read_func(), and so the memcpy() was copying
garbage data.
This patch necessitated adding __efivar_entry_get() which is callable
between efivar_entry_iter_{begin,end}(). We can also delete
__efivar_entry_size() because efi_pstore_read_func() was the only
caller.

We need to remove the entry from the EFI variable list before we erase
it from the variable store and free the associated state, otherwise it's
possible to hit the following crash,

'entry' needs to be initialised in efi_pstore_erase() when iterating
with __efivar_entry_iter(), otherwise the garbage pointer will be
dereferenced, leading to crashes like the above.

efivars.c has grown far too large and needs to be divided up. Create a
new directory and move the persistence storage code to efi-pstore.c now
that it uses the new efivar API. This helps us to greatly reduce the
size of efivars.c and paves the way for moving other code out of
efivars.c.
Note that because CONFIG_EFI_VARS can be built as a module efi-pstore
must also include support for building as a module.
