Subject[PATCH v3 0/8] pstore: ramoops: support multiple pmsg instances
Date
The following series implements multiple pmsg. This feature allows
userspace program to control individual content aging or priority.

If a pstore backend module(e.g. ramoops) requires the multiple pmsg
instances when registering itself to pstore, multiple /dev/pmsg[ID]
are created. Writes to each /dev/pmsg[ID] are isolated each other. After
reboot, the contents are available in /sys/fs/pstore/pmsg-[backend]-[ID].

In addition, we add multiple pmsg support for ramoops. We can
specify multiple pmsg area size by its module parameter as follows.

pmsg_size=0x1000,0x2000,...

I did check the operation of this feature on CycloneV (socfpga) Helio board.

v3:
Rebase to v4.8.
Split patch.
merged device_create().
Remove Blank lines.
Update documentiation of DT binding.
Update parsing function of ramoops_pmsg_size, add NULL termination.
Update module parameters for pmsg_size list.
