Ah! Heh, funny, I had just done a version of this while working on EFI
pstore fixes. Here's what I did instead:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux.git/commit/?h=pstore/fixes&id=ea209b760f104daf0cf62953090b66c5628b0842

This makes it so the time field is prepopulated for all backend
writes, which should simplify things (no need to have the backends
call out).
