Information was redundant between struct pstore_zone_info and struct
pstore_device_info. Use struct pstore_zone_info, with member name "zone".
Additionally untangle the logic for the "best effort" block device
instance.

Stop poking into block layer internals and just open the block device
file an use kernel_read and kernel_write on it. Note that this means
the transformation from name_to_dev_t can't be used anymore when
pstore_blk is loaded as a module: a full filesystem device path name
must be used instead. Additionally removes ":internal:" kerndoc link,
since no such documentation remains.

There's no good reason for the verify_size macro to live inside the
function. Move it up with the check_size() macro and fix indenting.

Now that the hd_struct always has a block device attached to it, there is
no need for having two size field that just get out of sync.
Additionally the field in hd_struct did not use proper serialization,
possibly allowing for torn writes. By only using the block_device field
this problem also gets fixed.

In order to use arbitrary block devices as a pstore backend, provide a
new module param named "best_effort", which will allow using any block
device, even if it has not provided a panic_write callback.

Add support for non-block devices (e.g. MTD). A non-block driver calls
pstore_blk_register_device() to register iself.
In addition, pstore/zone is updated to handle non-block devices,
where an erase must be done before a write. Without this, there is no
way to remove records stored to an MTD.

One requirement to support MTD devices in pstore/zone is having a
way to declare certain regions as broken. Add this support to
pstore/zone.
The MTD driver should return -ENOMSG when encountering a bad region,
which tells pstore/zone to skip and try the next one.

pstore/blk is similar to pstore/ram, but uses a block device as the
storage rather than persistent ram.
The pstore/blk backend solves two common use-cases that used to preclude
using pstore/ram:
- not all devices have a battery that could be used to persist
regular RAM across power failures.
- most embedded intelligent equipment have no persistent ram, which
increases costs, instead preferring cheaper solutions, like block
devices.
pstore/blk provides separate configurations for the end user and for the
block drivers. User configuration determines how pstore/blk operates, such
as record sizes, max kmsg dump reasons, etc. These can be set by Kconfig
and/or module parameters, but module parameter have priority over Kconfig.
Driver configuration covers all the details about the target block device,
such as total size of the device and how to perform read/write operations.
These are provided by block drivers, calling pstore_register_blkdev(),
including an optional panic_write callback used to bypass regular IO
APIs in an effort to avoid potentially destabilized kernel code during
a panic.
