powerpc/pseries/papr-sysparm: use u8 arrays for payloads
Some PAPR system parameter values are formatted by firmware as
nul-terminated strings (e.g. LPAR name, shared processor attributes).
But the values returned for other parameters, such as processor module
info and TLB block invalidate characteristics, are binary data with
parameter-specific layouts. So char[] isn't the appropriate type for
the general case. Use u8/__u8.
