Check that the OPAL_ELOG_READ token exists before initalising the elog
infrastructure.

This avoids littering the OPAL console with:
  "OPAL: Called with bad token 74"

The only caller does:

			/* Setup error log interface */
			rc = opal_elog_init();
			/* Setup code update interface */
			opal_flash_init();
			/* Setup platform dump extract interface */
			opal_platform_dump_init();
			/* Setup system parameters interface */
			opal_sys_param_init();
			/* Setup message log interface. */
			opal_msglog_init();

So we may as well have it return void. Wanna send a follow-up patch for that.
