It's not a string, is it?

of_drconf_cell needs endian annotations.

That could all use a lot of comments. ie. why do we have to add it twice?

*p should be __be32.

Don't pre-initialise your rc variables.

So if I'm reading this right the hp_elog either contains an index or a count of
LMBs to add. But it doesn't contain anything about which address ranges to add
or any of those details. That is all in the ibm,dynamic-memory property - but
how did it get in there?

In both the above error cases you just move along. That means we potentially
hotplugged some memory but not everything that we were asked to. That seems
like a bad idea, we should either do everything or nothing.

The value of rc here is not clear. It could be EINVAL or it could be the result
of the last dlpar_add_one_lmb(lmb). gcc would have told you that if you hadn't
initialised it.

This looks wrong.
Doesn't the rc eventually go back to dlpar_write(), which expects 0 for success?
That should show up as the write failing in userspace.

Don't initialise to zero, that way gcc can tell you if there's a path where you
forget to initialise it. It also means you can't accidentally return success.

This would look nicer as a switch I think.
