b43: Fix machine check error due to improper access of B43_MMIO_PSM_PHY_HDR



Register B43_MMIO_PSM_PHY_HDR is 16 bit one, so accessing it with 32b
functions isn't safe. On my machine it causes delayed (!) CPU exception:

Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 4 Bank 4: b200000000070f0f
mce: [Hardware Error]: TSC 164083803dc

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal machine check on current CPU
