kmsg_dump doesn't forward the panic reason string to the kmsg_dumper
callback.
This patch adds a new struct kmsg_dump_detail, that will hold the
reason and description, and pass it to the dump() callback.
To avoid updating all kmsg_dump() call, it adds a kmsg_dump_desc()
function and a macro for backward compatibility.
I've written this for drm_panic, but it can be useful for other
kmsg_dumper.
It allows to see the panic reason, like "sysrq triggered crash"
or "VFS: Unable to mount root fs on xxxx" on the drm panic screen.
v2:
* Use a struct kmsg_dump_detail to hold the reason and description
pointer, for more flexibility if we want to add other parameters.
(Kees Cook)
* Fix powerpc/nvram_64 build, as I didn't update the forward
declaration of oops_to_nvram()

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.

Use the more refined and tested event polling loop from opal_put_chars
as the fallback console flush in the opal-kmsg path. This loop is used
by the console driver today, whereas the opal-kmsg fallback is not
likely to have been used for years.
Use WARN_ONCE rather than a printk when the fallback is invoked to
prepare for moving the console flush into a common function.

OPAL_CONSOLE_FLUSH is documented as being able to return OPAL_BUSY,
so implement the standard OPAL_BUSY handling for it.

The recently added OPAL API call, OPAL_CONSOLE_FLUSH, originally took no
parameters and returned nothing. The call was updated to accept the
terminal number to flush, and returned various values depending on the
state of the output buffer.
The prototype has been updated and its usage in the OPAL kmsg dumper has
been modified to support its new behaviour as an incremental flush.

On BMC machines, console output is controlled by the OPAL firmware and is
only flushed when its pollers are called. When the kernel is in a panic
state, it no longer calls these pollers and thus console output does not
completely flush, causing some output from the panic to be lost.
Output is only actually lost when the kernel is configured to not power off
or reboot after panic (i.e. CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT is set to 0) since OPAL
flushes the console buffer as part of its power down routines. Before this
patch, however, only partial output would be printed during the timeout wait.
This patch adds a new kmsg_dumper which gets called at panic time to ensure
panic output is not lost. It accomplishes this by calling OPAL_CONSOLE_FLUSH
in the OPAL API, and if that is not available, the pollers are called enough
times to (hopefully) completely flush the buffer.
The flushing mechanism will only affect output printed at and before the
kmsg_dump call in kernel/panic.c:panic(). As such, the "end Kernel panic"
message may still be truncated as follows:

This functionality is implemented as a kmsg_dumper as it seems to be the
most sensible way to introduce platform-specific functionality to the
panic function.
