H A Dcx23888-ir.cdiff 3618acab2ccefe292a3b1a1d7295f1368023b71a Tue Oct 23 20:57:20 CEST 2012 Ezequiel Garcia <elezegarcia@gmail.com> [media] cx23885: Replace memcpy with struct assignment

This kind of memcpy() is error-prone. Its replacement with a struct
assignment is prefered because it's type-safe and much easier to read.
Found by coccinelle. Hand patched and reviewed.
Tested by compilation only.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
identifier struct_name;
struct struct_name to;
struct struct_name from;
expression E;
@@
-memcpy(&(to), &(from), E);
+to = from;
// </smpl>
