[PATCH] x86, kasan: Fix build failure on KASAN=y && KMEMCHECK=y kernels

From: Andrey Ryabinin
Date: Fri Oct 16 2015 - 07:29:04 EST


Declaration of memcpy is hidden under #ifndef CONFIG_KMEMCHECK.
In asm/efi.h we under #ifdef CONFIG_KASAN we #undef memcpy
thus following happens:

In file included from arch/x86/kernel/setup.c:96:0:
./arch/x86/include/asm/desc.h: In function ânative_write_idt_entryâ:
./arch/x86/include/asm/desc.h:122:2: error: implicit declaration of function âmemcpyâ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
memcpy(&idt[entry], gate, sizeof(*gate));
^
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
make[2]: *** [arch/x86/kernel/setup.o] Error 1

We will get rid of that #undef in asm/efi.h eventually.
But in the meanwhile move memcpy() declaration out ifdefs
to fix build.
