powerpc/pseries: Use correct data types from pseries_hp_errorlog struct

Browse source 
[ Upstream commit b76e0d4215 ]

_be32 type is defined for some elements in pseries_hp_errorlog
struct but also used them u32 after be32_to_cpu() conversion.

Example: In handle_dlpar_errorlog()
hp_elog->_drc_u.drc_index = be32_to_cpu(hp_elog->_drc_u.drc_index);

And later assigned to u32 type
dlpar_cpu() - u32 drc_index = hp_elog->_drc_u.drc_index;

This incorrect usage is giving the following warnings and the
patch resolve these warnings with the correct assignment.

arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dlpar.c:398:53: sparse: sparse:
incorrect type in argument 1 (different base types) @@
expected unsigned int [usertype] drc_index @@
got restricted __be32 [usertype] drc_index @@
