Subject: [PATCH 3/8] pstore: add support for external writers
From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@...el.com>
Other modules that may wish to write to persistent storage
are supported by adding a notifier and write function.
The notifier has 3 events: PSTORE_BEGIN, PSTORE_DUMP and
PSTORE_END. External writers use the PSTORE_DUMP event
whereas the PSTORE_BEGIN and PSTORE_END can be used by
platform code to ensure the back end is powered up.
