The first is a "service", while the second is a "hypercall".
Can you explain the distinction?  The sentence at the top
refers to both as "hypercalls".

A FN_ID is a 32-bit value.  Are all 18 high-order bits considered
part of the call type?  It might be good to specify that explicitly
by defining a mask for it.

Is there any need for the endianness of these values to be specified?
Does Gunyah operate with a well-defined endianness?  Is there any
chance a VM can run with an endianness different from Gunyah?  I
see that the arm_smcc_* structures are defined without endianness.
(Sorry if these are dumb questions.)

Perhaps 0x3f01 could be defined symbolically.

However if this is the only place it's ever used, doing so
doesn't add much value (meaning, just do it the way you did).

Will there be a growing set of well-known hypervisor call functions?
Perhaps 0x0000 should be defined symbolically.  (Or not if it's only
used here.)

I presume that, if the returned UID isn't well-known, then no other
Gunyah-related calls are meaningful.  Is that correct?

I see in the definition of struct arm_smccc_res that the four
fields are unsigned long values.  That differs from the u32
array passed as argument.  Are the resource IDs guaranteed to
be four 32-bit values?  I personally prefer being explicit
about the upper 32-bits being discarded (though some don't
agree with that convention).

Maybe config QCOM_GUNYAH?  Will this ever run on hardware
other than Qualcomm's?

How are the GH_IDENTIFY bits below used?  Are they encoded
in the three 64-bit flags fields in the response structure?
Does that mean only the first of those three is (currently)
used?

Again I'll ask about endianness.  This is a response coming *from*
Gunyah.  Is it guaranteed to use the same byte order convention as
the running operating system (Linux) guest?
