powerpc/nvram: Change nvram_setup_partition() to use new helper
This changes the function to use nvram_find_partition() instead of doing the lookup "by hand". It also makes some of the logic clearer and prints out more useful diagnostic information. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
