memcpy() source and destination areas must not overlap and equal
pointers is the case which is really met, so handle it.

slave_configure() in drivers/net/bonding calls rte_eth_dev_configure()
with &slave_eth_dev->data->dev_conf.

Alternative solution is to fix bonding and return error if dev_conf is
equal to &dev->data->dev_conf since usecase is unclear and callers
should not use dev->data.
