Um.. I don't quite see why that makes returning RTAS erorr values
difficult.  But I think it's made irrelevant by your suggestion later.

Yes, I think that might be the best idea, rtas_handle_eeh_request()
seems like a bit of an odd multiplexer at the moment.

Heh, ok.  I think you still want to make the fall-through more
obvious, it's easy to miss.
