The "side effects" memmove() test accidentally found[1] a corner case in the recent refactoring of the i386 assembly memmove(), but missed another corner case. Instead of hoping to get lucky next time, implement much more complete tests of memcpy() and memmove() -- especially the moving window overlap for memmove() -- which catches all the issues encountered and should catch anything new.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
