[PATCH] x86/insn: Use get_unaligned() instead of memcpy()

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Wed Sep 29 2021 - 14:10:50 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

Use get_unaligned() instead of memcpy() to access potentially unaligned
memory, which, when accessed through a pointer, leads to undefined
behavior. get_unaligned() describes much better what is happening there
anyway even if memcpy() does the job.

No functional changes.

Fixes: 5ba1071f7554 ("x86/insn, tools/x86: Fix undefined behavior due to potential unaligned accesses")
