This patch fixes the following checkpatch.pl warning:
Prefer ether_addr_copy() over memcpy()
if the Ethernet addresses are __aligned(2)
I used the following coccinelle script:

pahole showed that the used structs are aligned to u16.
I think you can stop here. The commit message is much too long for a 2-line patch.
BTW, have you tested this patch? In particular, it needs to be tested on an
architecture where alignment is important. Using x86 is not sufficient. The
reason I ask is that there have been a lot of patches lately that change locking
and alignment issues that are only build tested, and have never been tested with
real hardware on any platform.
One other thing, checkpatch only suggests that this change should be made. It is
certainly not mandatory. As you have not indicated that it has been tested,
NACK
