Subject: [PATCH 1/2 v3] drivers: staging: rtl8723au: Changed rssi_cmd to little-endian param

From: Jacob Kiefer <jtk54@...nell.edu>

Changed rssi_cmd interface to accept le32 param instead of
unnecessary u8 * conversion. Updated existing calls to rssi_cmd.
This patch pushes responsibility to caller to convert to
le32. This cleans up the code quite a bit.
Also removed magic numbers.

This patch fixes the following sparse error:

  CHECK   drivers/staging/rtl8723au/hal/rtl8723a_cmd.c
...
drivers/staging/rtl8723au/hal/rtl8723a_cmd.c:118:25: \
  warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types)
drivers/staging/rtl8723au/hal/rtl8723a_cmd.c:118:25: \
  expected unsigned int [unsigned] [usertype] <noident>
drivers/staging/rtl8723au/hal/rtl8723a_cmd.c:118:25:  \
  got restricted __le32 [usertype] <noident>
...

Signed-off-by: Jacob Kiefer <jtk54@...nell.edu>

In v3, opted to change the interface rather than just the internal
code to clear the sparse errors and make the code more sane.
