[PATCH 0/2] Google firmware driver updates

[Michel Lespinasse]

Two small fixes for google firmware drivers.

The patches are against v3.13; I am proposing this for inclusion to v3.14.

  firmware: fix google/gsmi duplicate efivars_sysfs_init()
  drivers-firmware: google memconsole driver fixes

[PATCH 1/2] firmware: fix google/gsmi duplicate efivars_sysfs_init()

[Michel Lespinasse]

Starting in commit e14ab23dde12b80db4c94b684a2e485b72b16af3,
efivars_sysfs_init() is called both by itself as an init function,
and by drivers/firmware/google/gsmi.c gsmi_init().

This results in runtime warnings such as the following:
[    5.651330] WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:530 sysfs_add_one+0xbd/0xe0()
[    5.657699] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/firmware/gsmi/vars'

Fixing this by removing the redundant efivars_sysfs_init() call in
gsmi_init().

Tested: booted, checked that /firmware/gsmi/vars was still present and
showed the expected contents.

Oops, my bad.

[PATCH 2/2] drivers-firmware: google memconsole driver fixes

[Michel Lespinasse]

The google memconsole driver is currently broken upstream, as it tries
to read memory that is described as reserved in /proc/iomem, by
dereferencing a pointer obtained through phys_to_virt(). This triggers
a kernel fault as such regions are unmapped after early boot.

The proper workaround is to use ioremap_cache() / iounmap() around such
accesses.

As some unrelated changes, I also converted some printks to use pr_info()
and added some missing __init annotations.

Tested: booted dbg build, verified I could read /sys/firmware/log
