powerpc/wdrtas: Update wdrtas_get_interval to use rtas_data_buf

The buffer passed to the ibm,get-system-parameter RTAS call must be
in the RMA. To ensure we pass an address in the RMA use rtas_data_buf
for the actual RTAS call and then copy the result to value. We can't
just make it static because this can be compiled in as a module.

Also add the WDRTAS_SP_SPI_LEN so we don't litter '4' throughout the
function.

Adrian, does this patch cause any problems for your pxcabs?

Thanks!

No, it even helps. I have no tried the watchdog until now, but without the
patch I get: 

   wdrtas: could not get sp_spi watchdog timeout (0). Continuing

and with the patch it reads the correct value. So only with your patch
it works like it is supposed to. Thanks!
