powerpc/pseries: Allow phandle to be specified in formats other than decimal
Allow the phandle passed to the /proc/ppc64/ofdt file to be specified in formats other than decimal. This allows us to easily specify phandle values in hex that would otherwise appear as negative integers. This is an issue on systems where the value of /proc/device-tree/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory.ibm,phandle is fffffff9. Having to pass this to the ofdt file as a string results in a large negative number, and simple_strtoul() does not handle negative numbers.
