_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.

The sparse tool complains as follows:
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/pmem.c:142:27: warning:
symbol 'drc_pmem_match' was not declared. Should it be static?
This symbol is not used outside of pmem.c, so this
commit marks it static.

This effectively reverts commit 3aa565f53c39 ("powerpc/pseries: Add
hooks to put the CPU into an appropriate offline state"), which added
an offline mode for CPUs which uses the H_CEDE hcall instead of the
architected stop-self RTAS function in order to facilitate "folding"
of dedicated mode processors on PowerVM platforms to achieve energy
savings. This has been the default offline mode since its
introduction.
There's nothing about stop-self that would prevent the hypervisor from
achieving the energy savings available via H_CEDE, so the original
premise of this change appears to be flawed.
I also have encountered the claim that the transition to and from
ceded state is much faster than stop-self/start-cpu. Certainly we
would not want to use stop-self as an *idle* mode. That is what H_CEDE
is for. However, this difference is insignificant in the context of
Linux CPU hotplug, where the latency of an offline or online operation
on current systems is on the order of 100ms, mainly attributable to
all the various subsystems' cpuhp callbacks.
The cede offline mode also prevents accurate accounting, as discussed
before:
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/1571740391-3251-1-git-send-email-ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com/
Unconditionally use stop-self to offline processor threads. This is
the architected method for offlining CPUs on PAPR systems.
The "cede_offline" boot parameter is rendered obsolete.
Removing this code enables the removal of the partition suspend code
which temporarily onlines all present CPUs.

The PAPR based virtualized persistent memory devices are only supported on
POWER9 and above. In the followup patch, the kernel will switch the persistent
memory cache flush functions to use a new `dcbf` variant instruction. The new
instructions even though added in ISA 3.1 works even on P8 and P9 because these
are implemented as a variant of existing `dcbf` and `hwsync` and on P8 and
P9 behaves as such.
Considering these devices are only supported on P8 and above, update the driver
to prevent a P7-compat guest from using persistent memory devices.
We don't update of_pmem driver with the same condition, because, on bare-metal,
the firmware enables pmem support only on P9 and above. There the kernel depends
on OPAL firmware to restrict exposing persistent memory related device tree
entries on older hardware. of_pmem.ko is written without any arch dependency and
we don't want to add ppc64 specific cpu feature check in of_pmem driver.
