H A Dopal-msglog.c7b62f9bd Tue Feb 26 21:02:29 CST 2019 Jordan Niethe <jniethe5@gmail.com> powerpc/powernv: Make opal log only readable by root

Currently the opal log is globally readable. It is kernel policy to
limit the visibility of physical addresses / kernel pointers to root.
Given this and the fact the opal log may contain this information it
would be better to limit the readability to root.
