Nicholas Piggin d2a2262e68 powerpc/powernv: Implement and use opal_flush_console
A new console flushing firmware API was introduced to replace event
polling loops, and implemented in opal-kmsg with affddff69c55e
("powerpc/powernv: Add a kmsg_dumper that flushes console output on
panic"), to flush the console in the panic path.

The OPAL console driver has other situations where interrupts are off
and it needs to flush the console synchronously. These still use a
polling loop.

So move the opal-kmsg flush code to opal_flush_console, and use the
new function in opal-kmsg and opal_put_chars.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
