[PATCH v2 0/2] OPAL message log interface

[Joel Stanley <joel@jms.id.au>]

These two patches add support for the message log, and expose a new OPAL call
called opal_invalid that allow me to cause OPAL to inject messages into the
log.

The naming is a bit mixed, as our device tree node is opal-memcons and I
retained the naming of the header structure 'struct memcons', but all other
references are to the OPAL message log.

They have been tested on a POWER7+ machine running some recent firmware.

Changes in V2:

The guts of the function used to read the console has been reworked. In doing
so, I've addressed the comments from Mikey and Ben:

 - Added barrier between reading header and data
 - Only read out_pos once
 - Check the return code before adding it to the number of bytes read

Unlike V1, this version correctly reads out a wrapped buffer.
