> Currently, when mounting pstore file system, a read callback of efi_pstore

> 
> - 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

> And then, it causes a following lockdep warning.
> 
> To make the read callback runnable without taking spinlok,

> 
> To implement it, this patch introduces two flags, scanning and deleting,
> to efivar_entry.
> Also, __efivar_entry_get() is removed because it was used in efi_pstore only.
