Oops, I missed the __HAVE_ARCH_MEMCPY and was looking at the wrong memcpy implementation.. And in any case, I went totally off-track by your last comment. I hadn't realized that you were still referring to the way the code looks, rather than questioning the switch to memcpy. Sorry about that! I'll fix the odd-looking indentation and repost the patch.
