      [PATCH] correct printing to operator panel · 8f586b22
      Mike Strosaker authored
      This patch corrects the printing of progress indicators to the op
      panel on p/iSeries ppc64 systems.  Each discrete reference code should
      begin with a form feed char to clear the op panel, and the first and
      second lines should be separated with a CR/LF sequence.  Padding with
      spaces is not necessary.
      
      Also, capitalize the hex value printed on the first line, to be
      consistent with the values printed by firmware, service processor,
      etc.
      
      It turns out that there's an ibm,form-feed property; this patch uses
      it in the pSeries-specific progress routine.  This patch also checks
      the number of rows and the specific width of each row (the second row
      on power5 systems can actually hold 80 characters).  If the displayed
      text is too wide for the physical display, it can be viewed in the ASM
      menus, or by selecting option 14 on the op panel.
