Michael, this appears to be hvcall (OS firmware layer) interface
on ppc64, for which I have backported and sent to you:
http://openib.org/pipermail/openfabrics-ewg/2007-January/002462.html
http://openib.org/pipermail/openfabrics-ewg/2007-January/002465.html
http://openib.org/pipermail/openfabrics-ewg/2007-January/002466.html
However the proper dir is include/asm, not include/linux.
Bryan, I haven't compared your version vs mine. If needed please
merge your addional code into the one I've posted ie include/asm/hvcall.h
Thanks
Nam
