powerpc: Check return value of instance-to-package OF call
On PA-Semi firmware, the instance-to-package callback doesn't seem to be implemented. We didn't check for error, however, thus subsequently passed the -1 value returned into stdout_node to thins like prom_getprop etc... Thus caused the firmware to load values around 0 (physical) internally as node structures. It somewhat "worked" as long as we had a NULL in the right place (address 8) at the beginning of the kernel, we didn't "see" the bug. But commit 5c0484e25ec03243d4c2f2d4416d4a13efc77f6a "powerpc: Endian safe trampoline" changed the kernel entry point causing that old bug to now cause a crash early during boot. This fixes booting on PA-Semi board by properly checking the return value from instance-to-package.
