crypto: xts - Replace memcpy() invocation with simple assignment
Colin reports that the memcpy() call in xts_cts_final() trigggers a "Overlapping buffer in memory copy" warning in Coverity, which is a false postive, given that tail is guaranteed to be smaller than or equal to the distance between source and destination. However, given that any additional bytes that we copy will be ignored anyway, we can simply copy XTS_BLOCK_SIZE unconditionally, which means we can use struct assignment of the array members instead, which is likely to be more efficient as well.
