[PATCH] pstore: Use memcpy_toio instead of memcpy

From: Furquan Shaikh
Date: Thu Nov 13 2014 - 13:09:44 EST


persistent_ram_update uses vmap / iomap based on whether the buffer is in memory
region or reserved region. However, both map it as non-cacheable memory. For
armv8 specifically, non-cacheable mapping requests use a memory type that has to
be accessed aligned to the request size. memcpy() doesn't guarantee that.
