Subject: [PATCH v3 11/19] x86, boot: Add checking for memcpy

From: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@...nel.org>

parse_elf is using local memcpy to move section to running position.
That memcpy actually only support no overlapping case or when dest < src.

Add checking in memcpy to find out the wrong case for future use, at
that time we will need to have backward memcpy for it.

Also add comments in parse_elf about the fact.

Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@...nel.org>

v2->v3:
    Add a declaration for error() since its declaration is in misc.h.
    But it's not included in compressed/string.c.
