[PATCH] i40e: fix memcpy with swapped arguments

From: Colin King
Date: Mon Mar 20 2017 - 10:47:57 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The current code copies an uninitialized params into
cdev->lan_info.params and then passes the uninitialized params
to the call cdev->client->ops->l2_param_change. I believe the
order of the source and destination in the memcpy is the wrong
way around and should be swapped.
