The way I'd implemented the new helper memcpy_and_pad with
__FORTIFY_INLINE caused compiler warnings for certain kernel
configurations.
This helper is only used in a single place at this time, and thus
doesn't benefit much from fortification. So simplify the code
by dropping fortification support for now.
Fixes: 3c5fa8cd18f8 "string.h: add memcpy_and_pad()"
