Hi,

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid
intentionally writing across neighboring fields.

These three changes have been living in my memcpy() series[1], but have
no external dependencies. It's probably better to have these go via
netdev.
Thanks.

Kalle, Saeed - would you like to take the relevant changes? Presumably
they would get into net-next anyway by the time the merge window opens.
Ok, I'll take patch 1 to wireless-drivers-next.
Correction: I'll take patches 1 and 3 to wireless-drivers-next.
Great; thanks!
