You should never remove copyright years; this would be okay as 2009-2010.

Another grep | sed you can simplify:

sed -n '/%s/ s/^.*,//p'

MACs are usually represented as hex, not decimal.  And if it really is
decimal, wouldn't you want unsigned?

Simplify:

sed -n '/%lld/ /^.*,//p'

This seems racy, and 1 second is a long pause.  Is there something more
reliable you can use to tell whether HMC is done?  Can you set up a
retry loop and sleep for shorter periods of time with retries until it
works to avoid a long pause?

sed '/lpar_id=%d/!d; /slot_num=%d/!d; s/^.*drc_name=//'

Similar.

Another instance where decimal MAC seems odd.

sed -n '/%lld/ s/^.*,//p'

This hunk seems completely random.  Should it be rebased into another
patch that actually touches phyp_driver.h?  And should it be 2009-2010?
