Subject: [GIT PULL] pstore/ram for 3.11

Not sure who takes this, but please pull these 2 changes for pstore for
3.11. These are necessary to get pstore to work with on-chip RAM on
Calxeda highbank platform.

I dropped the write-combine change from this series. While write-combine
is technically the correct mapping needed for ARM, it doesn't solve any
problem for me.
