I wonder if this should be typed big endian as you mention that it is in the
commit message?

Is this exclusive to 64bit? Why not u64?

plpar_hcall() returns long and this function returns int and rc is declared
s64?

Why not have them all be long to follow plpar_hcall?

And back to s64 after returning int?

and back to int...

Just make them long all through...
