pstore/ram: Do not use stack VLA for parity workspace

Browse Source 
Instead of using a stack VLA for the parity workspace, preallocate a
memory region. The preallocation is done to keep from needing to perform
allocations during crash dump writing, etc. This also fixes a missed
release of librs on free.
