[PATCH 3/3] powerpc/vphn: move endianness fixing to vphn_unpack_associativity()

The first argument to vphn_unpack_associativity() is a const long *, but the
parsing code expects __be64 values actually. This is inconsistent. We should
either pass a const __be64 * or change vphn_unpack_associativity() so that
it fixes endianness by itself.

This patch does the latter, since the caller doesn't need to know about
endianness and this allows to fix significant 64-bit values only. Please
note that the previous code was able to cope with 32-bit fields being split
accross two consecutives 64-bit values. Since PAPR+ doesn't say this cannot
happen, the behaviour was kept. It requires extra checking to know when fixing
is needed though.
