I think this code needs to be refactored so that it can share with the
ehca InfiniBand driver (which should be merged upstream soon).  For
example, you have ehea_hcall_7arg_7ret() and the ehca driver has an
identical ehca_hcall_7arg_7ret().

In genreral this is a good approach, but we think it will be a lengthy
process until the same code base is accepted from both - Network community
(keep it as simple as possible) vs. IB community (support full IB
functionallity). Another thing which makes it quite challenging is that
hypervisor calls have subtle little differences between eHCA and eHEA.

this stuff should go in <asm-powerpc/hvcall.h> with the other
constants, right?

Yes, that would be the next step.
