  efi-pstore: Make efi-pstore return a unique id (2013-11-29 10:11:06 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
 * Avoid triggering a lockdep warning caused by calling kmemdup() while
   holding a spinlock - Seiji Aguchi

 * EFI framebuffer earlyprintk fix for off-by-one error that caused
   console output to be split over two lines on some machines.

   the entry ID, thereby making them unique - Madper Xie
