powerpc/pseries: Fix endianness issue when parsing PLPKS secvar flags
When a user updates a variable through the PLPKS secvar interface, we take the first 8 bytes of the data written to the update attribute to pass through to the H_PKS_SIGNED_UPDATE hcall as flags. These bytes are always written in big-endian format. Currently, the flags bytes are memcpy()ed into a u64, which is then loaded into a register to pass as part of the hcall. This means that on LE systems, the bytes are in the wrong order. Use be64_to_cpup() instead, to ensure the flags bytes are byteswapped if necessary.
