The buffer size was chosen to be larger than default kmsg_bytes
(10240) in the pstore platform code and the request count is a
arbitrary value.

The pstore has 4 message types and I'd like to add a few more. This
patch only implements the most popular dmesg type and others will be
added later.
But I'm ok with the switch too.

Right. But it was fixed in v5 and you seem to review an earlier
version unfortunately.

The pstore driver doesn't create a device node (except the pmsg device
which this patch doesn't deal with) so it doesn't need to worry about
the user AFAIK. It just calls the pstore callbacks (if any) on some
system events (e.g. kmsg dump, console write and so on).
In fact, pstore is a pseudo file system, works as read-only mode.

I have no idea what I can do. Also it seems the kvmtools supports
only legacy devices (please correct me I was wrong).
