Commit 1f330c327900 ("drivers/firmware/broadcom/bcm47xx_nvram.c: use
__ioread32_copy() instead of open-coding") switched to use a generic copy
function, but failed to notice that the header pointer is updated between
the two copies, resulting in bogus data being copied in the latter one.
Fix by keeping the old header pointer.

The patch fixes totally broken networking on WRT54GL router (both LAN
and WLAN interfaces fail to probe).

	v2: Avoid using the device memory after the first copy when
	    checking the nvram length, suggested by Stephen Boyd.

	v1: http://marc.info/?t=145807850800003&r=1&w=2
