powerpc/nvram: Change nvram_setup_partition() to use new helper
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
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.
