Subject: [PATCH 4/8] Read/Write oops nvram partition via pstore
This patch exploits pstore infrastructure in power systems.
IBM's system p machines provide persistent storage for LPARs
through NVRAM. NVRAM's lnx,oops-log partition is used to log
oops messages. In case pstore registration fails it will
fall back to kmsg_dump mechanism.
This patch will read/write the oops messages from/to this
partition via pstore.
