Subject[PATCH] x86-64: fix memcpy() to support sizes of 4Gb and above
While currently there doesn't appear to be any reachable in-tree case
where such large memory blocks may be passed to memcpy(), we already
had hit the problem in our Xen kernels. Just like done recently for
mmeset(), rather than working around it, prevent others from falling
into the same trap by fixing this long standing limitation.
