Hi Greg,
Can you please add these two pstore fixes to 4.14 please? They are prerequisites for another fix I'll be sending to Linus soon that'll be needed in 4.14 (to fix the bug Yaro ran into).
b77fa617a2ff ("pstore: Remove needless lock during console writes") ea84b580b955 ("pstore: Convert buf_lock to semaphore")
How about I wait until your fix is in Linus's tree before backporting these? They will also be needed in 4.19, right?
thanks,
