These all need additions to doc/ to document the calls and the concepts
behind them.

There should probably also be an API for getting enqueued updates?

Think about adding things to a queue in petitboot, and then wanting to
check if there's things queued once booted to an OS.

Is there a reason for having this be separate calls to the calls to
iterate through variables?

As discussed on the phone this morning, this seems to be more of a
schema version to ensure that everybody agrees on the format of the
secvars that are parsed by skiboot, so is probably more suited to being
in the device tree.

Are these upstream? We don't want to carry patches against CCAN modules
that aren't upsteam. I'm not sure this is really needed though, we have
the next pointer, so why not use it?

you can use pointers in the arguments here, you don't need to cast
things below.

Why couldn't this be satisfied by passing NULL for the data parameter
ofr OPAL_SECVAR_GET ?

> k_key_len, uint64_t k_key_size)

What's the difference between k_key_len and k_key_size?

I'm also not sure what's up with the k_ prefixes, but that isn't really
part of any coding style for skiboot.
