Subject: [PATCH 3.13 102/105] pstore: Fix duplicate {console,ftrace}-efi entries

3.13.11.10 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Valdis Kletnieks <Valdis.Kletnieks@...edu>

commit d4bf205da618bbd0b038e404d646f14e76915718 upstream.

The pstore filesystem still creates duplicate filename/inode pairs for
some pstore types.  Add the id to the filename to prevent that.

Before patch:

[/sys/fs/pstore] ls -li

1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi

1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
