[PATCH v2] misc: sram-exec: Use aligned fncpy instead of memcpy

[Tony Lindgren]

> Currently the sram-exec functionality, which allows allocation of

> selected in configs for the ARM architecture. Based on commit
> 5756e9dd0de6 ("ARM: 6640/1: Thumb-2: Symbol manipulation macros for
> function body copying") simply copying a C function pointer address
> using memcpy without consideration of alignment and Thumb is unsafe on

> The aforementioned patch introduces the fncpy macro which is a safe way
> to copy executable code on ARM platforms, so let's make use of that here
> rather than the unsafe plain memcpy that was previously used by
> sram_exec_copy. Now sram_exec_copy will move the code to "dst" and
> return an address that is guaranteed to be safely callable.
> 
> In the future, architectures hoping to make use of the sram-exec
> functionality must define an fncpy macro just as ARM has done to
> guarantee or check for safe copying to executable memory before allowing
> the arch to select CONFIG_SRAM_EXEC.

Looks good to me:
