I don't see the point of renaming it, it just creates unnecessary churn.
The existing name seems OK to me.

Are the brackets necessary?

These aren't specific to get-sensor-state.

They're used by at least: ibm,manage-flash-image, ibm,activate-firmware,
ibm,configure-connector, set-indicator etc.

They have different meanings for those calls. I think you're best to
just leave the constant values in rtas_error_rc().

Should be GPL.
