Replace the open-coded implementation for reading the PCIe DSN with pci_get_dsn(). The original code used a simple for-loop to read the bytes in order into a buffer one byte at a time. The pci_get_dsn() function returns the DSN as a u64, correctly ordering the upper and lower 32 bit dwords. Simplify the display code by using %016llX to display the u64 DSN. This should have equivalent behavior on both Little and Big Endian systems. The bus will have correctly ordered the dwords in the CPU endian format, while pci_get_dsn() will correctly order the lower and higher dwords into a u64.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
