[RFC PATCH v2 11/11] pstore/ram: Read and write to the 'compressed'flag of pstore

From: Aruna Balakrishnaiah
Date: Fri Aug 16 2013 - 09:19:31 EST


In pstore write, add character 'C'(compressed) or 'D'(decompressed)
in the header while writing to Ram persistent buffer. In pstore read,
read the header and update the 'compressed' flag accordingly.
