Right, generally we should not see these errors. But few of them are
failures based on argument(s) passing to hcall. like passing invalid
window type or credits are not availavble. 

So can I add error messages for these specific ones and common error
message for other failures with the error code?

case H_PARAMETER:
   	pr_err("HCALL(%x): Invalid window type (%u)\n",
		H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, wintype);
case H_CONSTRAINED:
   	pr_err("HCALL(%x): Credits (%u) are not available\n",
		H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, credits);
case H_P2:
	pr_err("HCALL(%x): Credits(%u) exceed maximum window
credits\n", H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, credits);
default:
	pr_err("HCALL(%x): failure with error code %d\n", 	
		H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, rc);

yes, not using in pseries code now, but thought LPID is available in
SPRN_PID - PIDR is SPR48 and access to that in LPAR. Not true?

"processId : The LPAR process ID to bind to the specified window. This
parameter is ignored if the “closeWindow” flag is set.
threadId : The LPAR thread ID to bind to the specified window. This
parameter is ignored if the “closeWindow”
flag is set."

since TIDR is deprecated on p10, we are not passing threadID

Linux VAS implementation does not support AMR. The application /
library has to pass this value with TX_WIN_OPEN ioctl. We do not have
any use case right now. I will change the above comment to make it
clear.

phyp added this interface for future reference and AIX may be using it.
