pstore: Convert console write to use ->write_buf
Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't know why it needs to copy the input buffer to psinfo->buf and then write. Instead we can write the input buffer directly. The only implementation that supports console message (i.e. ramoops) already does it for ftrace messages. For the upcoming virtio backend driver, it needs to protect psinfo->buf overwritten from console messages. If it could use ->write_buf method instead of ->write, the problem will be solved easily.
