Nit: I find such use of goto with a label inside another scope rather
confusing. Goto is usually used to avoid code duplication on a cleanup
path and this is not the case.

I'd rather ditch "goto" and do "if (!rc) xscom_write_mask" for the
second xscom_write_mask()   or   move "out:" 1 line higher. Up to
Stewart really :)

... break out here:
	if (val & L2_PRD_PURGE_CMD_REG_BUSY)
		break;

As if you read val with the bit set, then checking timeout is rather
pointless, no?

I'd make it (uint64_t)-1 :) deafbeaf is more for poisoning memory.

I assume this is a leftover from when it was an OPAL call. There is no
even small chance for this to be called for anything but p9, right?

Looks like if there is a single core at all (quite unlikely but still a
possible situation), we won't wait below at all.

return OPAL_SUCCESS;

return OPAL_BUSY_EVENT. Now it always returns 0.

This takes care of the guest termination case (which is good).

Now in order to cover the period between the guest started rebooting and
the guest started onlining the memory, we also need purge_l2_l3_caches()
near npu2_dev_procedure_reset() in npu2_dev_cfg_exp_devcap() as this is
the reset method used for NPU when the guest reboots.

return purge_l2_l3_caches(), otherwise the timeout error is lost.
