[GIT PULL] pstore updates for v4.8

From: Kees Cook
Date: Mon Jul 25 2016 - 18:21:13 EST


Hi,

This is my first pull request as the new pstore maintainer, so hopefully
I've followed all the correct best-practices. :) Please let me know if
I need to change anything about how I've constructed this pull request.

These are the updates for pstore, which expands the supported compressors,
fixes some bugs, and finally adds DT bindings.

Thanks!

-Kees
