3.16.60-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Nicholas Piggin <npig...@gmail.com> commit 741de617661794246f84a21a02fc5e327bffc9ad upstream. opal_nvram_write currently just assumes success if it encounters an error other than OPAL_BUSY or OPAL_BUSY_EVENT. Have it return -EIO on other errors instead.
