pstore: Allocate records on heap instead of stack
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In preparation for handling records off to pstore_mkfile(), allocate the
record instead of reusing stack. This still always frees the record,
though, since pstore_mkfile() isn't yet keeping it.
