I wouldn't bother with the unlikely, but whatever, looks good.

Looks good, but ..

You should patch the call to rtas_ibm_cbe_perftools() as well, like:

        ret = rtas_ibm_cbe_perftools(SUBFUNC_ACTIVATE,
                                     PASSTHRU_ENABLE, pm_signal_local,
                                     sizeof(pm_signal_local));


cheers
