There are users like Qualcomm minidump which is interested in
knowing the pstore frontend addresses and sizes from the backend
(ram) to be able to register it with firmware to finally collect
them during crash for debugging.

Uh, this makes no sense to me. If this is a real pstore_record, you
cannot just assign psi here.

Ok.

Common code style for this kind of thing is usually like this:

		return -EINVAL;

	return psinfo->region_info(...)

Thanks.

But there's a larger problem here -- "virt", "phys" and likely
"max_dump_cnt" are aspects _specific to the ram backend_. This can't be
a generic pstore interface.

I'm not opposed to it being exposed only from ramoops, though.

But I think you'll want a pstore generic way to iterate over the
records..
