"not unisolated" is the spec language.

It treats RTAS_BUSY, RTAS_EXTENDED_DELAY_MIN...RTAS_EXTENDED_DELAY_MAX
differently, which is part of the point of this change.

Aside: rtas_error_rc() (from powerpc's rtas.c) is badly named. Its
conversions make sense for only a handful of RTAS calls. RTAS error
codes have function-specific interpretations.
