Subject: [PATCH] thermal/x86 pkg temp: Remove debugfs_create_u32() casts

When exposing data access through debugfs, the correct
debugfs_create_*() functions must be used, depending on data type.

Remove all casts from data pointers passed to debugfs_create_*()
functions, as such casts prevent the compiler from flagging bugs.
