Currently after mount/remount operation on pstore filesystem,
the content on pstore will be lost. It is because current ERST
implementation doesn't support multi-user usage, which moves
internal pointer to the end after accessing it. Adding
multi-user support for pstore usage.

the return type of function _read_ in pstore is size_t,
but in the callback function of _read_, the logic doesn't
consider it too much, which means if negative value (assuming
error here) is returned, it will be converted to positive because
of type casting. ssize_t is enough for this function.

Some platforms have a small amount of non-volatile storage that
can be used to store information useful to diagnose the cause of
a system crash. This is the generic part of a file system interface
that presents information from the crash as a series of files in
/dev/pstore. Once the information has been seen, the underlying
storage is freed by deleting the files.
