pstore/ram_core: Better ECC size checking
- Instead of exploiting unsigned overflows (which doesn't work for all sizes), use straightforward checking for ECC total size not exceeding initial buffer size; - Printing overflowed buffer_size is not informative. Instead, print ecc_size and buffer_size; - No need for buffer_size argument in persistent_ram_init_ecc(), we can address prz->buffer_size directly.
