[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 3/5] zynq: k4.19: fix kernel panic on smp bring-up

This fixes a kernel panic when validating the
arguments of memcpy at runtime, which is enabled
by generic's CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE for k4.19

This wasn't triggered on 4.14, as ARCH_HAS_FORTIFY_SOURCE
was added on k4.17 for the ARM architecture

+Subject: [RFC PATCH] ARM: zynq: Use memcpy_toio instead of memcpy on smp bring-up
+
+This fixes a kernel panic (read overflow) on memcpy when
+FORTIFY_SOURCE is enabled.
+
+The computed size of memcpy args are:
+- p_size (dst): 4294967295 = (size_t) -1
+- q_size (src): 1
+- size (len): 8
+
+Additionally, the memory is marked as __iomem, so one of
+the memcpy_* functions should be used for read/write
