Why is it necessary to build with -O?

Possibly need __attribute__((packed))?

Hm, could not pt_regs be reused?

Looks redundant comment to me.

For readability,

Use %p instead.

() can go.

Perhaps..

static bool check_for_bios32_support(struct bios32_service_dir *bios_32_ptr)
{
	/*
	 * Search for signature by checking equal to the swizzled value
	 * instead of calling another routine to perform a strcmp.
	 */
	return bios_32_ptr->signature == PCI_BIOS32_SD_VALUE &&
	       valid_checksum((void *)bios_32_ptr,
               (unsigned char)(bios_32_ptr->length * PCI_BIOS32_PARAGRAPH_LEN))
}

cast (ahem) not needed. Done too much C++? ;-)
Check the rest.

Would this work?

static inline void hpwdt_stop(void)
{
	writew(readw(hpwdt_timer_con) & 0xFE, hpwdt_timer_con);
}
