[PATCH] get rid of bcopy warning

From: Stephen Hemminger
Date: Wed Aug 13 2003 - 13:45:23 EST


Get rid of warning because internal definition of bcopy
conflicts with builtin. The warning is probably a bogus
bug of GCC 3.2.3, but the workaround is simple.

Almost no driver really uses bcopy anyway, and no code
uses the return value.
