Wow, I'm clueless what that string format looks like :-)
2 arguments? Did you check the kernel string formatter does what you want?
You may consider unifying the format though, the error log patch uses a 
simpler (better?) format for a similar message.

All those ioctls commands follow the same pattern:
1. admin_command_request()
2. optionnaly, set some mmio registers specific to the command
3. admin_command_execute()
4. admin_command_complete_timeout()
5. admin_response()

By swapping 1 and 2, we could then factorize steps 1, 3, 4 and 5 in a 
function and simplify/shorten the code each time a command is called.

Regarding step 2 (and that's true for all similar patches), a comment 
about what the mmio tuning does would help and avoid looking up the 
spec. Looking up the spec during the review is expected, but it will 
ease reading the code 6 months from now.

Those offsets are hard to understand, even with the spec next to me. And 
it seems that we could harden things a bit:
each block as a "statistics parameter ID" and the length of the data for 
that block. We should check that and make sure we're reading what we expect.
For example, from the spec I'm looking (110d), I would expect the host 
load count to be at offset 0x10. It's entirely possible I'm misreading 
it though.

That may be more of a personal habit, but that final goto disrupts the 
"good case" flow. And I think it's pretty unusual within the kernel.

Same as before, we're going to have some padding here.
