Bin Yang 831b624df1 pstore: Fix incorrect persistent ram buffer mapping
persistent_ram_vmap() returns the page start vaddr.
persistent_ram_iomap() supports non-page-aligned mapping.

persistent_ram_buffer_map() always adds offset-in-page to the vaddr
returned from these two functions, which causes incorrect mapping of
non-page-aligned persistent ram buffer.

By default ftrace_size is 4096 and max_ftrace_cnt is nr_cpu_ids. Without
this patch, the zone_sz in ramoops_init_przs() is 4096/nr_cpu_ids which
might not be page aligned. If the offset-in-page > 2048, the vaddr will be
in next page. If the next page is not mapped, it will cause kernel panic:

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
