Hi Jerrin,
Apologies for the delay, I missed on the comment
```

Use _const_ in fast path if src and dst in not changing as better optimization
hint to compiler.
```
Thanks for the suggestion, but may I ask this differently `rte_memcpy` is
defined with `always_inline` and all places where src used is with `const *`.
Hence I have different view there as `setting const * for always_inline
definition has the same effect too`.
