[PATCH V4 2/2] arm64: Change memcpy in kernel to use the copy template file

Feng Kan fkan at apm.com
Fri Aug 21 15:01:41 PDT 2015


This converts the memcpy.S to use the copy template file. The copy
template file was based originally on the memcpy.S. Minor changes
was made to it to accommodate the copy to/from/in user files.
