On ChromiumOS devices, the `ecc_size` is set to 0 (check dmesg | grep ecc to see `ecc: 0`): this disables ECC for ramoops region, even when `ramoops.ecc=1` is given to kernel command line parameter. Introduce `ecc_size` module parameter to provide a method to turn on ECC for ramoops and set different values of ecc_size per devices. A large `ecc_size` value can cause a kernel panic due to a constraint in Reed-Solomon code library. The validation for this constraint should belong to the common pstore RAM layer, not in each individual driver. So this check is handled by a separate patch [1].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
