[POWERPC] linux,tce-size property is 32 bits
The "linux,tce-size" property is only 32 bits (see prom_initialize_tce_table() in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c). Treating it as an unsigned long in iommu_table_setparms() leads to access beyond the end of the property's buffer, so we pass garbage to the memset() in that function.
