This driver can only be build on pseries, and pseries always selects
RTAS. So the ifdef is unncessary.

That's not really what the platform header is intended for.

You should put the extern in arch/powerpc/include/asm somewhere.

Maybe rtas.h

Not needed.

Please document where these come from, presumably LoPAPR somewhere?

I'm confused by this. "str" implies string, a string is an array of
bytes and has no endian. But then be16 implies it's an array of __be16,
in which case buf should be a __be16 *.

No tabs there please.

static?

You're not using the rtas_data_buf, so why are you taking the
rtas_data_buf_lock?

pr_err(), don't use __FILE__, this file already uses pr_fmt(). Not sure
__func__ is really necessary either.

		return;

Then you can deindent the next block.

Why isn't the buffer a __be16 array, and then you just use be16_to_cpu() ?

What is ntypes?
