pstore: Avoid potential infinite loop
If a backend does not correctly iterate through its records, pstore will get stuck loading entries. Detect this with a large record count, and announce if we ever hit the limit. This will let future backend reading bugs less annoying to debug. Additionally adjust the error about pstore_mkfile() failing. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
