[Patch v5] powerpc/powernv: add hdat attribute to sysfs

The HDAT data area is consumed by skiboot and turned into a device-tree.
In some cases we would like to look directly at the HDAT, so this patch
adds a sysfs node to allow it to be viewed.  This is not possible through
/dev/mem as it is reserved memory which is stopped by the /dev/mem filter.
This patch also adds sysfs nodes for all properties in the device-tree 
under /ibm,opal/firmware/exports.

Changes between v4 and v5:
	- all properties under /ibm,opal/firmware/exports in the device-tree
	  are now added as new sysfs nodes
	- the new sysfs nodes are now placed under /opal/exports
	- added a generic read function for all exported attributes
