[RFC 4/8] kmsg: add function for adding and deleting additional buffers

From: Marcin Niesluchowski
Date: Fri Jul 03 2015 - 06:52:09 EST


Additional kmsg buffers should be created and deleted dynamically.

Adding two functions
* kmsg_sys_buffer_add() creates additional kmsg buffer returning minor
* kmsg_sys_buffer_del() deletes one based on provided minor
