Subject: [PATCH] platform/chrome: chromeos_pstore: Add ecc_size module parameter

On ChromiumOS devices, the ecc_size is set to 0 (check dmesg | grep ecc 
to see `ecc: 0`): this disables ECC for ramoops region, even when 
ramoops.ecc=1 is given to kernel command line parameter.

This patch introduces ecc_size module parameter to provide an method to 
turn on ECC for ramoops and set different values of ecc_size per devices.
