This introduces a bug, "new_ie" is modified between the kzalloc() and
the memcpy(), but you've moved the memcpy() into the allocation. In
fact, new_ie is completely freshly kzalloc()'ed at this point. So you
need to change the ordering here, but since new_ie is freed pretty much
immediately, we can probably just build the stuff directly inside
new_ies->data, though then of course we cannot use your helper anymore?
