Kees Cook 016dadc60e bcache: Silence memcpy() run-time false positive warnings
[ Upstream commit be0d8f48ad ]

struct bkey has internal padding in a union, but it isn't always named
the same (e.g. key ## _pad, key_p, etc). This makes it extremely hard
for the compiler to reason about the available size of copies done
against such keys. Use unsafe_memcpy() for now, to silence the many
run-time false positive warnings:

  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 264) of single field "&i->j" at drivers/md/bcache/journal.c:152 (size 240)
  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 24) of single field "&b->key" at drivers/md/bcache/btree.c:939 (size 16)
  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 24) of single field "&temp.key" at drivers/md/bcache/extents.c:428 (size 16)

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.
