With CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, FORTIFY reports the following warning for
this memcpy:

  [  899.918673] ------------[ cut here ]------------

Would it make sense to use a union to overlay the struct
arm_smccc_1_2_regs with an RSI-specific argument layout and copy the
digest into an explicit 64-byte array, as in commit 221049874b6a
("arm64: RSI: fix field-spanning write warning in attestation token
init")?

Thanks,
Kohei
