The Sparse static checker flags a type mismatch warning related to
endianness conversion:
| warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different base types)
| expected restricted __le32 const [usertype] *p
| got unsigned int *
This is because an explicit endianness conversion (le32_to_cpu()) was
applied unnecessarily to a pcc_hdr.flags field that is already in
little-endian format.
The PCC driver is only enabled on little-endian kernels due to its
dependency on ACPI and EFI, making the explicit conversion unnecessary.
The redundant conversion occurs in pcc_chan_check_and_ack() for the
pcc_hdr.flags field. Drop this unnecessary endianness conversion of
pcc_hdr.flags.
Also drop the redundant PCC_ACK_FLAG_MASK definition and use the
more appropriate and already defined PCC_CMD_COMPLETION_NOTIFY.
