Isn't this already initialised to zero?

Tying this to the processor generation doesn't make a whole lot of
sense to me. You've already defined platform specific functions to
access the secure boot storage area so why not use the presence of
those to determine if secure variables are supported?

you're using an un-initialised variable.

You can use LIST_HEAD() to staticly initialise these. For example in
core/i2c.c we initialise the global bus list with:
static LIST_HEAD(i2c_bus_list);

Return a useful OPAL_<blah> code or make the function void.

Wierd API. Is the implementation of the update and variable cases
going to be all that different? Seems like it would be cleaner to have
one read/write function and pass in the bank type as an argument.
Also is there a good reason not to put this directly in the platform
structure? Mystery callbacks that get set at runtime are mostly just
annoying in my experience.

Put these in ccan/list/list.h in a seperate patch and include the
documentation from upstream ccan. There's no reason to have random
bits of generic list code peppered around the tree.
