powerpc/vphn: NUMA node code expects big-endian

The associativity domain numbers are obtained from the hypervisor through
registers and written into memory by the guest: the packed array passed to
vphn_unpack_associativity() is then native-endian, unlike what was assumed
in the following commit:

    powerpc: Make NUMA device node code endian safe

This issue fills the topology with bogus data and makes it unusable. It may
lead to severe performance breakdowns.

We should ideally patch the vphn_unpack_associativity() function to do the
64-bit loads, but this requires some more brain storming.

In the meantime, let's go for a suboptimal and temporary bug fix: this patch
converts each 64-bit value of the packed array to big endian, as expected by
the current parsing code in vphn_unpack_associativity().
