Currently pstore has a /sys/fs/pstore hook to change the amount of data saved.
Christoph Hellwig convinced me that a mount option would be better, so there
is a patch pending to change this:

I can add more options easily (apart from thinking of good names for
the options :-)

But this is beginning to feel over engineered ... I think I'll wait to see
if there are some other (better) ideas before I rush to do this.
