[PATCH v4 5/8] powerpc/pseries: Read rtas partition via pstore

From: Aruna Balakrishnaiah
Date: Wed Jun 05 2013 - 14:52:06 EST


This patch set exploits the pstore subsystem to read details of rtas partition
in NVRAM to a separate file in /dev/pstore. For instance, rtas details will be
stored in a file named [rtas-nvram-4].
