---Problem Description---
Currently, SOSREPORT version used by 16.04.01 LTS release does not collect
OPAL log which is present in /sys/firmware/opal/msglog.

A patch has been submitted upstream(https://github.com/sosreport/sos.git) to do the above thing.

commit 1bbf9e9690e7f2a5afc234b905537daacaecb6d4

    Add OPAL log to collected file list

    The OPAL console log used to live under /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc so it
    was collected as part of that glob. This patch adds the new location at
    /sys/firmware/opal/msglog to the list of collected files.
