[PATCH[ fix duplicate console-efi entries in pstore

From: Valdis Kletnieks

The pstore filesystem still creates duplicate filename/inode pairs for
some pstore types. Add the id to the filename to prevent that.

Before patch:

[/sys/fs/pstore] ls -li
total 0
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi
1250 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi


After:

[/sys/fs/pstore] ls -li
total 0
1232 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 148 Sep 29 17:09 console-efi-141202499100000

1227 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 148 Sep 29 23:42 console-efi-141204854900000
1226 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 23:42 console-efi-141204855000000
1225 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 148 Sep 29 23:59 console-efi-141204954200000
1224 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 67 Sep 29 23:59 console-efi-141204954400000
