This is a reroll of the series posted here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20210114220004.1138993-1-nathanl@linux.ibm.com/ (local)

Originally this work was prompted by failures on radix MMU PowerVM
guests when passing buffers to RTAS that lay outside of its idea of
the RMA. In v1 I approached this as a problem to be solved in Linux,
but RTAS development has since decided to change their code so that
the RMA restriction does not apply with radix.

So in v2 I retain the cleanups and discard the more significant change
which accommodated the misbehaving RTAS versions.
Is there a link with https://github.com/linuxppc/issues/issues/252 ?
No, not really.
