 * Console output is controlled by OPAL firmware.  The kernel regularly calls
 * OPAL_POLL_EVENTS, which flushes some console output.  In a panic state,
 * however, the kernel no longer calls OPAL_POLL_EVENTS and the panic message
 * may not be completely printed.  This function does not actually dump the
 * message, it just ensures that OPAL completely flushes the console buffer.
