The formatting here looks weird between the two-tab indent and the
opening brace on the macro definition line.

This still looks odd to me.  Why not the somewhat more verbose but
much more obvious:

	if (!dev) {
		pr_err("NULL pstore_device_info\n");
		return -EINVAL;
	}
	if (!dev->zone.total_size) {
		pr_err("zero sized device\n");
		return -EINVAL;
	}
	...

This is starting to be unreadable long.  A local variable for the inode
might be nice, as that can also be used in the ISBLK check above.

Maybe split this into a little helper?

Same.

Won't this double unregister pstore_device_info?

Given that flags is only used inside of __register_pstore_device
why not kill this struct and just pass it explicitly?
