The dump_read_cnt changes appear to be unrelated to the actual bugfix?

I recommended this change since it is being cleared during open, and
this zeroing was confusing.

If so, please send this along as a separate patch.  With a full
changelog - this one doesn't explain the dump_read_cnt changes at all.

Liu, I would recommend a changelog along the lines of:

Clarify which variables need to be cleared during pstore_open. Added
missed ftrace_read_cnt clearing and removed duplicate clearing in
ramoops_probe.

Thanks. It's more clearly. I copied some of your comments into changelog. :)
Re-sent the patch with the new changelog. The subject also changed.

*_read_cnt in ramoops_context need to be cleared during pstore ->open
to support mutli times getting the records. The patch added missed
ftrace_read_cnt clearing and removed duplicate clearing in ramoops_probe.
