Subject: [PATCH] scsi: lpfc: Switch memcpy_fromio() to __read32_copy()
In commit bc73905abf770192 ("[SCSI] lpfc 8.3.16: SLI Additions, updates,
and code cleanup"), lpfc_memcpy_to_slim() have switched memcpy_toio() to
__write32_copy() in order to prevent unaligned 64 bit copy. Recently, we
found that lpfc_memcpy_from_slim() have similar issues, so let it switch
memcpy_fromio() to __read32_copy().

Huacai,
Note: the original change was 7 yrs ago and we've had no reports of
issues. but....
This change didn't look necessary as the memcpy_XXXio() should allow
byte alignments and byte-based lengths. Which means the original patch
also wasn't necessary, which implies that the platform that had the
issues has an api restriction not normally found on the other platforms.
I have no problem with the change though.
