Looks like this still hasn't made upstream, although it has been in
linux-next since the end of June?  The issue is still present (and
now an error with -Werror), but hidden due to commit d07f3b081ee63226
("mark pstore-blk as broken").

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
