[Skiboot] [PATCH 3/3] xscom: Don't create PELs for non-severe read/write failures

From: "Gautham R. Shenoy" <ego at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Certain xscom read/write calls initiated by the userspace (either via
HBRT or xscom-utils) can fail with an incorrect-address error code due
to known hardware errors. These failures are not severe, in that they
do not cause the machine to checkstop and hence, elogs need not be
created for them.

This patch defines new function calls named opal_xscom_read() and
opal_xscom_write() to map to OPAL_XSCOM_READ and OPAL_XSCOM_WRITE
calls respectively, so that we can distinguish these calls from the
calls to perform xscom-read/writes initiated within OPAL.

Further, the patch ensures that we do not create PELs for
opal_xscom_read()/write() failures due to incorrect address.
