    drivers/elog: sync events to non-volatile storage last
    
    There were multiple paths where writes and erases of the flash
    were being done. Instead provide a single place for synchronizing
    the non-volatile storage from the mirrored event log. This
    synchronization point resides as the very last thing done when
    adding an event to the log. The shrinking check happens before
    committing the event to non-volatile storage so there's no need
    to attempt a shrink in elog_init() because any previous events
    committed already honored the full threshold.
