[PATCH] KVM: arm64: FFA: Use pointers from memcpy() calls for assignments in three functions

[Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

A pointer was assigned to a variable in three function implementations.
The same pointer was used for the destination parameter of a memcpy() call.
This function is documented in the way that the same value is returned.
Thus convert separate statements into direct variable assignments for
the return values from memory copy actions.

The source code was transformed by using the Coccinelle software.
