  pstore: Create a convenient mount point for pstore (2013-02-12 13:07:22 -0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
A few fixes to reduce places where pstore might hang
a system in the crash path. Plus a new mountpoint
(/sys/fs/pstore ... makes more sense then /dev/pstore).

----------------------------------------------------------------
Josh Boyer (1):
      pstore: Create a convenient mount point for pstore

      efivars: Disable external interrupt while holding efivars->lock
