    [POWERPC] Fix panic in RTAS code
    
    Some older pSeries machines were panicking in pSeries_log_error
    because it was getting called before it was ready.  This is a result
    of commit "[POWERPC] pseries: Fix jumbled no_logging flag."
    (79c0108d1b9db4864ab77b2a95dfa04f2dcf264c).
    
    This fixes it by explicitly enabling RTAS error logging when it has
    been initialized, and also makes the code clearer by renaming the
    "no_more_logging" variable to "logging_enabled".
