Thanks for your applying, Ingo!

BTW, I have a question.
Why does the symbol name of rep prefix memcpy() start from '.'?
The symbol name starts from '.' like ".Lmemcpy_c" cannot seen as
symbol name after compile.

I couldn't find the reason why .Lmemcpy_c has to start from '.'.
For example, clear_page in arch/x86/lib/clear_page_64.S
doesn't start from '.' but it is alternative function.

If there is no special reason, I'd like to rename it.

Thanks,
	Hitoshi
