pstore try to find duplicate entries by check both ID, type and psi.
They are not really enough for efi backend. dumped vars always have
the same type, psi and ID. like follows:
dump-type0-9-1-1382511508-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0
dump-type0-9-1-1382515661-C-cfc8fc79-be2e-4ddc-97f0-9f98bfe298a0
The "duplicate" entries won't appear in pstorefs. And a complain will be
print -- pstore: failed to load 76 record(s) from 'efi'
So I add one more check: timespec.
