[PATCH] ppc64: janitor log_rtas_error() call arguments
This patch from Linas Vepstas (rediffed by me) fixes the confusing argument aliasing of the log_rtas_error() subroutine. This patch makes no functional changes, it just cleans up some strange usage. The rtas_args used to communicate with firmware are always taken from the paca struct, so as to keep the args at a fixed, low-memory location. But the log_rtas_error() routine also took an rtas_args pointer, which it assumed was aliased to the paca struct. This aliasing is both un-neccessary, and confusing; this patch eliminates this confusion.
