You need to ensure the of the members of struct opal_occ_msg are in the
correct byte order when copying them over.

Have you tested this code with in a little endian configuration?
Ah yes this wont work in LE.
I tested the below diff in both BE/LE configuration on Power8 box which has FSP.

-       memcpy(&omsg, msg->params, sizeof(omsg));
+       omsg.type = be64_to_cpu(msg->params[0]);
+       omsg.chip = be64_to_cpu(msg->params[1]);
+       omsg.throttle_status = be64_to_cpu(msg->params[2]);
Do the messages you're sending make sense for a system that has a BMC
instead of a FSP?
For a system with BMC, only OCC_THROTTLE will be received by the host. The
remaining two (OCC_RESET and OCC_LOAD) are sent only in FSP based systems.
OCC_THROTTLE is sent by opal which polls on the throttle_status byte in the
OPAL-OCC shared memory region.

Joel
