Subject[PATCH] efi: Avoid sysfs spew on reboot and panic
Date
Right now all pstore accesses to efivars will delete or create new sysfs
nodes. This is less than ideal if we've paniced or are rebooting, since
we're in entirely the wrong context to do this kind of thing. Add the
reason to the pstore callback and make sure we only manipulate the files
if we're still going to be alive afterwards.
