[PATCH] fix "passing argument # of '__memcpy' discards qualifiers from pointer target type" warnings

["Miguel Botón" <mboton.lkml@gmail.com>]

This patch fixes the warnings "passing argument 1 of '__memcpy' discards 
qualifiers from pointer target type" and "passing argument 2 of '__memcpy' 
discards qualifiers from pointer target type" when compiling some files.

I don't really know if this is the best way but at least I don't get more 
warnings.
