As we see in skiboot code, configure high FIFO and export this node first, and then normal FIFO. In case if xscom read/ write for high FIFO failed, we do not proceed for normal FIFO.

This is infuriating to read.

OPAL is an API that Skiboot happens to implement. It's like that so
that we can change the behaviour of skiboot (to work around bugs,
implement new features, or whatever)  without breaking the existing
kernels that use that API. Trying to argue that this is OK because it
works with the *current* behaviour of skiboot misses the point
entirely.
