This smells like global constant. Does not it? If yes could you define it
in a global header and use it? Maybe even replace existing comparisons
in the IEEE1275 code with IEEE1275_CELL_TRUE. But probably then
s/IEEE1275_CELL_TRUE/GRUB_IEEE1275_CELL_TRUE/...

I wasn't sure and also had found local #defines in another .c file.

#define IEEE1275_PHANDLE_INVALID  ((grub_ieee1275_cell_t) -1)
#define IEEE1275_IHANDLE_INVALID  ((grub_ieee1275_cell_t) 0)
#define IEEE1275_CELL_INVALID     ((grub_ieee1275_cell_t) -1)

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/tree/grub-core/kern/ieee1275/ieee1275.c#n24

I haven't seen the usage of -1 as TRUE in other grub files. So I could move it to a global header file assuming this is commonly used on this platform. I have only seen usage of -1 as TRUE in the SLOF firmware in this file here:

https://github.com/aik/SLOF/blob/master/lib/libnvram/libnvram.code#L66

but then of course also here: https://github.com/aik/SLOF/blob/master/lib/libtpm/tcgbios.c#L965
