On EEH events the kernel will print a dump of relevant registers.
If EEH is unavailable (i.e. CONFIG_EEH is disabled, a new platform
doesn't have EEH support, etc) this information isn't readily available.

Add a new debugfs handler to trigger a PHB register dump, so that this
information can be made available on demand.

Needn't initialize @ret in advance. The code might be simpler, but it's
only a personal preference:
I believe its actually preferred that it not be initialized in advance
so that the tooling can warn you about conditional code paths where you
may have forgotten to set a value. Or as Gavin suggests to explicitly
use error values in the return statements.
Yeah, the data type should be int64_t as well.

Thanks,
Gavin
