gcc warns about a memcpy() with overlapping pointers because of an
incorrect size calculation:
In file included from include/linux/string.h:369,
from drivers/ata/sata_sx4.c:66:

inlined from 'pdc20621_get_from_dimm.constprop' at drivers/ata/sata_sx4.c:962:2:

The problem here is the overflow of an unsigned 32-bit number to a
negative that gets converted into a signed 'long', keeping a large
positive number.
Replace the complex calculation with a more readable min() variant
that avoids the warning.
