This patch extends pstore, a generic interface to platform dependent
persistent storage, support for powernv platform to capture certain
useful information, during dying moments. Such support is already in
place for pseries platform. This patch re-uses most of that code.
It is a common practice to compile kernels with both CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES=y
and CONFIG_PPC_POWERNV=y. The code in nvram_init_oops_partition() routine
still works as intended, as the caller is platform specific code which
passes the appropriate value for "rtas_partition_exists" parameter.
In all other places, where CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES or CONFIG_PPC_POWERNV
flag is used in this patchset, it is to reduce the kernel size in cases
where this flag is not set and doesn't have any impact logic wise.

Add printk levels to powernv platform code, and convert to
pr_err() etc while here.

Implements OPAL RTC and NVRAM support and wire all that up to
the powernv platform.
We use RTAS for RTC as a fallback if available. Using RTAS for nvram
is not supported yet, pending some rework/cleanup and generalization
of the pSeries & CHRP code. We also use RTAS fallbacks for power off
and reboot
