I feel splitting this patch into smaller set of changes would make it 
easier to review. For instance roughly as below:

  1, opal-api.h which adds the #defines  OPAL_SECVAR_ and the API signature.
  2, secvar.h then adds secvar_operations struct
  3, powerpc/kernel for the Interface definitions
  4, powernv/opal-secvar.c for the API implementations
  5, powernv/opal-call.c for the API calls
  6, powernv/opal.c for the secvar init calls.

Please fix the indentation for the #defines

Should the return status (rc) from opal_secvar_get be checked before 
attempting to do the conversion (be64_to_cpu)?

Same comment as above - should rc be checke before attempting to convert?

Is the key and data received here from a trusted caller? If not, should 
there be some validation checks done here before enqueuing the data?
