rt2x00: type bug in _rt2500usb_register_read()

This code causes a static checker bug.

drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2500usb.c:232 _rt2500usb_register_read()
warn: passing casted pointer 'value' to 'rt2500usb_register_read()' 32 vs 16.

If the low 16 bits were initialized to zero then this code would only be
a problem on big endian systems.  But in this case this is case the low
16 bits are never initialized.  This is called from a function which is
created using a macro:

RT2X00DEBUGFS_OPS(csr, "0x%.8x\n", u32);

We end up copying uninitialized data to the user which is bogus and an
information leak.
