According to the OPAL docs:
skiboot-5.2.5/doc/opal-api/opal-rtc-read-3.txt
skiboot-5.2.5/doc/opal-api/opal-rtc-write-4.txt
OPAL_HARDWARE may be returned from OPAL_RTC_READ or OPAL_RTC_WRITE and
this indicates either a transient or permanent error.
Prior to this patch, Linux was not dealing with OPAL_HARDWARE being a
permanent error particularly well, in that you could end up in a busy
loop.
This was not too hard to trigger on an AMI BMC based OpenPOWER machine
doing a continuous "ipmitool mc reset cold" to the BMC, the result of
that being that we'd get stuck in an infinite loop in
opal_get_rtc_time().
We now retry a few times before returning the error higher up the
stack.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
