gcc-8 points out that the skb_copy_to_linear_data() argument points to
the skb itself, which makes it run into a problem with overlapping
memcpy arguments:
In file included from include/linux/ip.h:20,
from drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c:26:
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c: In function 'ql_realign_skb':
include/linux/skbuff.h:3378:2: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
memcpy(skb->data, from, len);
It's unclear to me what the best solution is, maybe it ought to use a
different helper that adjusts the skb data in a safe way. Simply using
memmove() here seems like the easiest workaround.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
