Hmmm, I think this is a bit confusing because it essentially does the
reverse of all the other kvm internal return convention.  Wouldn't it
make more sense to have 0 (success, but exit to user space), 1 (success,
resume VM), and < 0 (failure).

Also note that you are general-casing all error codes that may happen to
mean that it did not match the PSCI function to anything well-known.
In this case, that's sort of ok, because we don't expect the PSCI code
to randomly fail (if it does, it reports it to the caller in the return
register), but not fail, as in, I'm out of memory or anything like that.
But I think you can clarify this in the comment, by saying something
like:

Errors:
 -EINVAL: Unrecognized PSCI function

in the comment for the function.

Isn't this an unrelated change, which should go in a separate patch with
some justification text for the change?

Otherwise, it looks overall to go in the right direction.
