Seems like an overly long line given other local wrapping.

I'm not really sure what the __ prefix denotes here.

According to https://docs.kernel.org/core-api/printk-formats.html
should be fine using %x for u16 values. So why dance through a cast to long?

Same as above comment on casts being unnecessary.

If it's not possible do we need the defensive _or_null and error checks?

I'm not sure what 'this' is here - I think it's a missing plural that has
me confused.  Perhaps 'these must be done first.'

Perhaps state that this comment is about what happens in each call of
mpam_enable_merge_vmsc_features()  Or move the comment to that function.
