The source (&dcbx_info->operational.params) and dest (&p_hwfn->p_dcbx_info->set.config.params) are both struct qed_dcbx_params (560 bytes), not struct qed_dcbx_admin_params (564 bytes), which is used as the memcpy() size. However it seems that struct qed_dcbx_operational_params (dcbx_info->operational)'s layout matches struct qed_dcbx_admin_params (p_hwfn->p_dcbx_info->set.config)'s 4 byte difference (3 padding, 1 byte for "valid"). On the assumption that the size is wrong (rather than the source structure type), adjust the memcpy() size argument to be 4 bytes smaller and add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to validate any changes to the structure sizes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
