Subject: [PATCH 2/6] nvram: Capture oops/panic reports in ibm, oops-log partition

From: Jim Keniston <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 13 Nov 2010 20:15:21 -0800

Create the ibm,oops-log NVRAM partition, and capture the end of the printk
buffer in it when there's an oops or panic.  If we can't create the
ibm,oops-log partition, capture the oops/panic report in ibm,rtas-log.
