The whole API here is a bit unfortunate.  From what I can tell,
callers of this code almost always call rpmh_write_batch() in
triplicate, AKA:

rpmh_write_batch(active, ...)
rpmh_write_batch(wake, ...)
rpmh_write_batch(sleep, ...)

...that's going to end up writing the whole sleep/wake sets twice
every single time, right?  I know you talked about trying to keep
separate dirty bits for sleep/wake and maybe that would help, but it
might not be so easy due to the comparison of "sleep_val" and
"wake_val" in is_req_valid().

I guess we can keep the inefficiency for now and see how much it hits
us, but it feels ugly.

nit: why not add "int ret = 0" to the top of the function, then here:

if (rpmh_flush(ctrl))
  ret = -EINVAL;

...then at the end "return ret".  It avoids the 2nd copy of the unlock?

Also: Why throw away the return value of rpmh_flush and replace it
with -EINVAL?  Trying to avoid -EBUSY?  ...oh, should you handle
-EBUSY?  AKA:

if (!psci_has_osi_support()) {
  do {
    ret = rpmh_flush(ctrl);
  } while (ret == -EBUSY);
}

nit: you've now got an extra "blank" (just has a "*" on it) line at
the end of your comment block.

nit: in v9, Evan suggested "We should probably replace that with a
comment indicating that we assume ctrlr->cache_lock is already held".
Maybe you could do that?

Also: presumably you _will_ still be called by the sleep code from the
last CPU on systems with OSI.  Is that true?  If that's not true then
you should change your function to static.  If that is true, then your
comment should be something like "this function will either be called
from sleep code on the last CPU (thus no spinlock needed) or with the
spinlock already held".
