sppp: Fix getting wrong spppreq cmd from ioctl
ifr->ifr_data is supposed to point to a struct spppreq. The first member cmd of struct spppreq is int type. It was pre-read via `fueword()` before a full fetching. Unfortunately an user space `struct spppreq spr` may not be zeroed explicitly, on 64bit architectures `fueword()` reads 64bit word thus the garbage (extra 4 bytes) may be read into kernel space (subcmd). Prior to f9d8181, `subcmd` was declared as int and assigned from `fuword()` and was implicitly converted from long to int. On 64bit little endian architectures the implicitly conversion overflows (undefined bahavior) which happen to trash the garbage (the extra 4 bytes, high 32 bits) and worked, but no luck on 64bit big endian architectures. Since f9d8181 `subcmd` was changed to u_long then there is no conversion so we end up mismatching `subcmd` with user space's `cmd`. It is also a bit hackish to get the value of cmd via `fueword()`, instead we refer to it directly from spr->cmd. This is a direct commit to stable/13 as sppp(4) no longer exists in main and stable/14.
