Subject: [patch] fs/compat: fix a bug in do_ncp_super_data_conv()

We are trying to copy the c_n->mounted_vol[] array and the three integer
struct members that follow it.  The problem is that there is a 3 byte
struct hole after c_n->mounted_vol[] so we don't copy the lower 3 bytes
of c_n->flags.

I fixed it by doing the assignments one at a time.
