This adds a helper to paste 2 pointer arrays together, useful for merging various types of attribute arrays. There are a few places in the kernel tree where this is open coded, and I just added one more in the STM class. The naming is inspired by memset_p() and memcat(), and partial credit for it goes to Andy Shevchenko. This patch adds the function wrapped in a type-enforcing macro and a test module.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
