There are three cleanups for vmcore_add_device_dump(). Adjust data_size's
type from 'size_t' to 'unsigned int' for the consistency of data->size.
Return -ENOMEM directly rather than goto the label to simplify the code.
Using scoped_guard() to simplify the lock/unlock code.

This was in reverse Christmas tree order before.  Move the data_size
declaration up a line.

Got it,  and this 'usgined int' will be removed because of 'size_t' can
avoid overflow in some case.

Please, move this "return 0;" out of the scoped_guard().  Otherwise
it's not obvious that we return zero on the success path.
Yes, it's better. Will update in v2 patch.
Thanks again!
