Subject: [RFC PATCH 4/7] pstore: Allocate and free page-sized memory in persistent RAM buffer

ramtrace backend acts as a page allocator and manages
the persistent RAM buffer.

ramtrace supports allocation and deallocation of page-sized memory
through methods, ramtrace_alloc_page and ramtrace_free_page.
This functionality is required by ring buffer in trace when the user
switches to persistent storage.

Just prior to allocating pages for recording trace entries, ramtrace
backend frees up the list used to maintain pages pertaining to previous
boot. After this, reading previous boot trace entries from
/sys/fs/pstore is disabled.
