Pull pstore cleanups from Kees Cook:

 - Remove some needless memory allocations (Yue Hu, Kees Cook)

 - Add zero-length checks to avoid no-op calls (Yue Hu)

* tag 'pstore-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
  pstore/ram: Avoid needless alloc during header write
  pstore/ram: Add kmsg hlen zero check to ramoops_pstore_write()
  pstore/ram: Move initialization earlier
  pstore: Avoid writing records with zero size
  pstore/ram: Replace dummy_data heap memory with stack memory
