Correct, although it is kind of hard coded into skiboot at the moment. I
will change the commit message to omit this.

Seems like that will cause less confusion, will change it.

I agree.

Struct oppanel_line is typedefed to oppanel_line_t in opal-api.h,
so this should be oppanel_line_t or struct oppanel_line?

This will align to the name of the config option, so will change
to your recommendation

I agree with all of the above and will fix.

This is documented in skiboot in doc/opal-api/opal-messages.txt
I guess that would be a nice addition.

pr_debug makes sense I think.

This was an implementation decision, but I agree now that it makes more
sense to clear the panel when writing at the start as it may not have
been you who wrote to it initially.

I agree with all of the above and will fix up.
