pstore: Add priv field to pstore_record for backend specific use

Browse Source 
The EFI pstore backend will need to store per-record variable name data
when we switch away from the efivars layer. Add a priv field to struct
pstore_record, and document it as holding a backend specific pointer
that is assumed to be a kmalloc()d buffer, and will be kfree()d when the
entire record is freed.
