Are there ordering issues we need to think about here with reading
these?  Can the messages be written on another CPU at the same time as
these are being read?

What happens if in between reading wrapped and out_pos the buffer wraps?
You'd end up getting only a few bytes of console?  Maybe you need to
read wrapped before and after out_pos to make should it's not wrapped in
between.

> +	if (!wrapped) {

Why the negative case first?  Just make it:

   if (wrapped) {
      wrapped case
   } else {
      not wrapped case
   }

Also, no curlies needed for single statement.

This is probably not necessary, but do we need to sanity check out_pos <
obuf_size?  I guess we don't generally sanity check numbers from OPAL as
it can screw us in many other ways anyway.

What if this second read returns an error?  num_read += -ERRNO?  I think
you need to check this return independently.
