PCI/AER: Avoid info leak in __print_tlp_header()
Commit fab4c256a58b ("PCI/AER: Add a TLP header print helper") introduced the helper function __print_tlp_header(), but contrary to the intention, the behaviour did change: Since we're taking the address of the parameter t, the first 4 or 8 bytes printed will be the value of the pointer t itself, and the remaining 12 or 8 bytes will be who-knows-what (something from the stack). We want to show the values of the four members of the struct aer_header_log_regs; that can be done without ugly and error-prone casts. On little-endian this should produce the same output as originally intended, and since no-one has complained about getting garbage output so far, I think big-endian should be ok too.
