[PATCH] mfd: macsmc: Fix key count endianness annotation

[Sven Peter <sven@kernel.org>]

SMC firmware returns the value of the #KEY key in big-endian unlike most
other keys. Reading it through apple_smc_read_u32() into a plain u32
and then converting with be32_to_cpu() makes sparse complain:

  drivers/mfd/macsmc.c:462:26: sparse: cast to restricted __be32

Read the raw value into a __be32 using apple_smc_read() instead.

Fixes: e038d985c982 ("mfd: Add Apple Silicon System Management Controller")
