When talking about RTAS calls, it might be better to have their full
names defined in PAPR spec. So I guess it'd better to replace configure_pe
and configure_bridge with their corresponding full RTAS call names:
"ibm,configure-pe" and "ibm,configure-bridge".

I think it would be #3.10+.

The PAPR spec states that the delay can be up to 10^5ms. The spec also suggests
the maximal delay is 10^2. I guess it's worthy to mention it in the above 
comments
if you like.

If you like, the block can be simplified to as below. In that case,
tag #err isn't needed.

                if (!ret)
                        return ret;

                max_wait -= rtas_busy_delay(ret);
