It's actually, it's about KMEMCHECK=y and KASAN=n, because declaration
of memcpy() is hidden under ifndef.
arch/x86/include/asm/string_64.h:
#ifndef CONFIG_KMEMCHECK
#if (__GNUC__ == 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 3) || __GNUC__ > 4
extern void *memcpy(void *to, const void *from, size_t len);
#else
#define memcpy(dst, src, len) \
.......
#endif
#else
/*
* kmemcheck becomes very happy if we use the REP instructions
unconditionally,
* because it means that we know both memory operands in advance.
*/
#define memcpy(dst, src, len) __inline_memcpy((dst), (src), (len))
#endif
So it also broke build with GCCs 4.0 - 4.3.
And it also breaks clang build, because AFAIK clang defines GNUC,
GNUC_MINOR as 4.2.

I think we can add something like -DNOT_KERNEL (anyone has a better name ?)
to the CFLAGS for everything that is not linked with the kernel binary
(efistub, arch/x86/boot)
So, if NOT_KERNEL is defined we will not #define memcpy(), so we won't
need these undefs.
