Thanks for your review. I updated the patches as you suggested.

// Increase a reference count when pstore file is read.
 static const struct file_operations pstore_file_operations = {
+       .owner          = THIS_MODULE,
        .open           = pstore_file_open,
        .read           = pstore_file_read,
        .llseek         = pstore_file_llseek,

// Increase a reference count when pstore is mounted.
 static struct file_system_type pstore_fs_type = {
+       .owner          = THIS_MODULE,
        .name           = "pstore",
        .mount          = pstore_mount,
        .kill_sb        = pstore_kill_sb,
