3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 741de617661794246f84a21a02fc5e327bffc9ad upstream.
opal_nvram_write currently just assumes success if it encounters an
error other than OPAL_BUSY or OPAL_BUSY_EVENT. Have it return -EIO
on other errors instead.
Fixes: 628daa8d5abf ("powerpc/powernv: Add RTC and NVRAM support plus RTAS fallbacks")
