[PATCH v2 2/4] powerpc/rtas: strengthen do_enter_rtas() type safety, drop inline

Make do_enter_rtas() take a pointer to struct rtas_args and do the
__pa() conversion in one place instead of leaving it to callers. This
also makes it possible to introduce enter/exit tracepoints that access
the rtas_args struct fields.

There's no apparent reason to force inlining of do_enter_rtas()
either, and it seems to bloat the code a bit. Let the compiler decide.
