Subject: [GIT PULL] pstore revert for v6.0-rc8

Hi Linus,

Please pull this pstore revert for v6.0. A misbehavior with some
compression backends in pstore was just discovered due to the recent
crypto acomp migration. Since we're so close to release, it seems better
to just simply revert it, and we can figure out what's going on without
leaving it broken for a release.

Thanks!

-Kees
