Subject: ibmvnic: Fix endian errors in error reporting output
From: Thomas Falcon <tlfalcon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 75224c93fa985f4a6fb983f53208f5c5aa555fbf ]
Error reports received from firmware were not being converted from
big endian values, leading to bogus error codes reported on little
endian systems.
