Please document the locks that this code relies on. It is generally not
safe to call virtqueue_*() from multiple threads. I also wonder about
locking for virtio_pstore->req_id and other fields. Are locks missing
or is something in pstore ensuring safety?

This assumes the device puts compatible Linux errno values in res->ret.
The function doesn't need to return -errno if I'm reading fs/pstore/
code correctly. You could return -1 on error to avoid making this
assumption. The same applies to other res->ret usage below.

Assigning &vps->req[vps->req_id]/&vps->res[vps->req_id] is unnecessary,
virt_pstore_get_reqs() handles that below.

We trust the device but a length check would be nice here to be clear
that the memcpy() below is always safe:
if (len > psi->bufsize)
return -1;

There's no point in returning -ENOMEM if we return -1 and res->ret
above. The caller has no way of knowing the true meaning of the return
value. I would return -1 to be clear that there are no error constants.

This function does not wait for a response from the device so you cannot
call virt_pstore_get_reqs() without risk of reusing an in-flight buffer.

If we don't wait for request completion then virtqueue_add_sgs() could
fail here if the virtqueue is already full.

Erase commands are sent on the "read" virtqueue, not the "write"
virtqueue?

Should this be free_pages_exact() instead of kfree()?
Is it safe to call pstore_register() before the remaining initialization
steps?
My understanding is that if pstore is already mounted then requests will
immediately be sent. In order to support this we'd need to initialize
everything else first before calling pstore_register().

This call is needed if the .probe() function uses virtqueues before
returning. Right now it either doesn't use the virtqueues or it has
already used them in virt_pstore_init(). Please move this before
pstore_register().
