Sure, please look at:

    fortify: Add run-time WARN for cross-field memcpy()
[...]
Here, we might switch to unsafe_memcpy() instead of memcpy()
I would tend to agree. Something like:
diff --git a/net/sched/cls_u32.c b/net/sched/cls_u32.c
index 4d27300c287c..21e0e6206ecc 100644

-	memcpy(&n->sel, s, sel_size);
+	unsafe_memcpy(&n->sel, s, sel_size,

 	RCU_INIT_POINTER(n->ht_up, ht);
 	n->handle = handle;
 	n->fshift = s->hmask ? ffs(ntohl(s->hmask)) - 1 : 0;
Ah, there is another in the same source file, in u32_init_knode():

        memcpy(&new->sel, s, struct_size(s, keys, s->nkeys));

(I've been trying to convince Coccinelle to produce a list of all the
composite structure targets, but I keep running into weird glitches.
That it hadn't found this one let me track down the latest issue, so now
I should be able to find more! Whew.)
