Subject: pstore: Fix duplicate {console,ftrace}-efi entries
From: Valdis Kletnieks <Valdis.Kletnieks@xxxxxx>
commit d4bf205da618bbd0b038e404d646f14e76915718 upstream.
The pstore filesystem still creates duplicate filename/inode pairs for
some pstore types. Add the id to the filename to prevent that.
