Geliang Tang ee1d267423 pstore: add pstore unregister
pstore doesn't support unregistering yet. It was marked as TODO.
This patch adds some code to fix it:
 1) Add functions to unregister kmsg/console/ftrace/pmsg.
 2) Add a function to free compression buffer.
 3) Unmap the memory and free it.
 4) Add a function to unregister pstore filesystem.

Anton Vorontsov 65f8c95e46 pstore/ftrace: Convert to its own enable/disable debugfs knob
With this patch we no longer reuse function tracer infrastructure, now
we register our own tracer back-end via a debugfs knob.

It's a bit more code, but that is the only downside. On the bright side we
have:

- Ability to make persistent_ram module removable (when needed, we can
  move ftrace_ops struct into a module). Note that persistent_ram is still
  not removable for other reasons, but with this patch it's just one
  thing less to worry about;

- Pstore part is more isolated from the generic function tracer. We tried
  it already by registering our own tracer in available_tracers, but that
  way we're loosing ability to see the traces while we record them to
  pstore. This solution is somewhere in the middle: we only register
  "internal ftracer" back-end, but not the "front-end";

- When there is only pstore tracing enabled, the kernel will only write
  to the pstore buffer, omitting function tracer buffer (which, of course,
  still can be enabled via 'echo function > current_tracer').

Anton Vorontsov 060287b8c4 pstore: Add persistent function tracing
With this support kernel can save function call chain log into a
persistent ram buffer that can be decoded and dumped after reboot
through pstore filesystem. It can be used to determine what function
was last called before a reset or panic.

We store the log in a binary format and then decode it at read time.

p.s.
Mostly the code comes from trace_persistent.c driver found in the
Android git tree, written by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com>
(according to sign-off history). I reworked the driver a little bit,
and ported it to pstore.
