[RFC PATCH v2 02/11] pstore: Add new argument 'compressed' inpstore write callback

From: Aruna Balakrishnaiah
Date: Fri Aug 16 2013 - 09:18:10 EST


Addition of new argument 'compressed' in the write call back will
help the backend to know if the data passed from pstore is compressed
or not (In case where compression fails.). If compressed, the backend
can add a tag indicating the data is compressed while writing to
persistent store.
