[PATCH 4/5] pstore: remove the module parameter "backend"

[Yuanhe Shu <xiangzao@linux.alibaba.com>]

Since all enabled backends have corresponding subdir in
/sys/fs/pstore, and the logic of finding unexpected is
changed by using psinfo_list rather than parameter backend,
it is not necessary to retain the parameter backend.

Remove the unnecessary module parameter "backend".
