Great! Optimized memmove is in todos of several MIPS developers.
Considering your patch and my investigation though, it's not
showstopper. In fact, there are a few places that call memmove, all of
them aren't on "common path". However, I would consider that common path
certainly depends on the way Linux is used. I may imagine the
configuration where the bug may trigger.
Perhaps, eliminating that known "horror fix" (you know) is more
important.

Gleb.
