The idea was to compile MMC_PSTORE as part of MMC_BLOCK driver,
provided it is optionally enabled.
The above arrangement compiles MMC_PSTORE=20
as module: if (CONFIG_MMC_PSTORE_BACKEND =3D=3D y && CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK =3D=
=3D m)
as static:     if (CONFIG_MMC_PSTORE_BACKEND =3D=3D y && CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK =
=3D=3D y)

The mmc disk name (disk_name) doesn't include the partition number.=20
strncmp is restricted to something like /dev/mmcblk0, it doesn't cover full=
 /dev/mmcblk0pn.
The partition number check is carried out in the next statement.
