Subject: ibmvnic: Fix endian errors in error reporting output

From: Thomas Falcon <[email protected]>

[ 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.
