                                     "supports" is fine.

This doesn't need "extern", and also should go in
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/pseries.h as it's local to that directory.

You're using "hblkr" in a few places, can we instead make it "hblkrm" -
"rm" is a well known abbreviation for "remove".

Can you make that __ro_after_init, it goes at the end, eg:

static int hblkr_size[MMU_PAGE_COUNT][MMU_PAGE_COUNT] __ro_after_init;

"static inline" and __init are sort of contradictory.

Just make it "static void __init" and the compiler will inline it
anyway, but if it decides not to the section will be correct.

This one uses "hblk"? Should it be set_hblkrm_block_size() ?

Can we just convert those to normal bit ordering for the comment, eg:

 PAPR specifies:
   - bit 7 is the L bit
   - bits 0-5 are the penc value

"HBLKRM_L_MASK" would do I think?

One blank line is sufficient :)

The +10 is just a guess I think?

If I'm counting right that ends up as 42 bytes, which is not much at
all. You could probably just make it a cache line, 128 bytes, which
should be plenty of space?

This should be grouped with the other ints below on one line.

That's going to trigger on a lot of older machines, and all KVM VMs, so
just return silently.

Here you memset the whole buffer ...

But then here you memcpy over the entire buffer, making the memset above
unnecessary.

__FILE__ and __func__ is pretty verbose for what should be a rare case
(I realise you copied that from existing code).

		pr_warn("Error calling get-system-parameter(%d, ...) (0x%x)\n",
                        SPLPAR_TLB_BIC_TOKEN, call_status);

Should do I think?

This took me a minute to parse. I guess I was expecting something more
like:
	len = be16_to_cpu(local_buffer) + 2;

??

I think it's allowed for len to be == SPLPAR_TLB_BIC_MAXLENGTH isn't it?

This is a little subtle, local_buffer is char, so no endian issue, but
you're loading that into an unsigned int which makes it look like there
should be an endian swap.

Maybe instead do:
		u8 block_shift = local_buffer[idx++];
                u32 block_size;

		if (!block_shift)
                	break;

		block_size = 1 << block_shift;

??

This could overflow if npsize is too big. I think you can just add
"&& idx < len" to the for condition to make it safe?

I think this is probably too verbose, except for debugging. Probably
just remove it?
