Subject: pstore: Add priv field to pstore_record for backend specific use
Patch-mainline: v6.0-rc1
Git-commit: 8ca869b24538a7b5501af368e87e4a59b0c04117
References: jsc#PED-1409

The EFI pstore backend will need to store per-record variable name data
when we switch away from the efivars layer. Add a priv field to struct
pstore_record, and document it as holding a backend specific pointer
that is assumed to be a kmalloc()d buffer, and will be kfree()d when the
entire record is freed.
