[PATCH v4 03/13] powerpc/rtas: Add function return status constants

From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl at linux.ibm.com>

Not all of the generic RTAS function statuses specified in PAPR have
symbolic constants and descriptions in rtas.h. Fix this, providing a
little more background, slightly updating the existing wording, and
improving the formatting.
