Subject: [PATCH 1/2][next] wl3501_cs: Fix out-of-bounds warning in
 wl3501_send_pkt

Fix the following out-of-bounds warning by enclosing
structure members daddr and saddr into new struct addr:

arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:182:25: warning: '__builtin_memcpy' offset [18, 23] from the object at 'sig' is out of the bounds of referenced subobject 'daddr' with type 'u8[6]' {aka 'unsigned char[6]'} at offset 11 [-Warray-bounds]

Refactor the code, accordingly:

$ pahole -C wl3501_md_req drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.o
struct wl3501_md_req {
	u16                        next_blk;             /*     0     2 */
	u8                         sig_id;               /*     2     1 */
	u8                         routing;              /*     3     1 */
	u16                        data;                 /*     4     2 */
	u16                        size;                 /*     6     2 */
	u8                         pri;                  /*     8     1 */
	u8                         service_class;        /*     9     1 */
	struct {
		u8                 daddr[6];             /*    10     6 */
		u8                 saddr[6];             /*    16     6 */
	} addr;                                          /*    10    12 */

	/* size: 22, cachelines: 1, members: 8 */
	/* last cacheline: 22 bytes */
};

The problem is that the original code is trying to copy data into a
couple of arrays adjacent to each other in a single call to memcpy().
Now that a new struct _addr_ enclosing those two adjacent arrays
is introduced, memcpy() doesn't overrun the length of &sig.addr,
because the address of the new struct object _addr_ is used as
destination, instead.

Also, this helps with the ongoing efforts to enable -Warray-bounds and
avoid confusing the compiler.
