Subject: hinic: Replace memcpy() with direct assignment

From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1e70212e031528918066a631c9fdccda93a1ffaa upstream.

Under CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y and CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS=y, Clang is bugged
here for calculating the size of the destination buffer (0x10 instead of
0x14). This copy is a fixed size (sizeof(struct fw_section_info_st)), with
the source and dest being struct fw_section_info_st, so the memcpy should
be safe, assuming the index is within bounds, which is UBSAN_BOUNDS's
responsibility to figure out.

Avoid the whole thing and just do a direct assignment. This results in
no change to the executable code.

[This is a duplicate of commit 2c0ab32b73cf ("hinic: Replace memcpy()
 with direct assignment") which was applied to net-next.]
