[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] Cleanup rte_memcpy.h

[Ravi Kerur <rkerur@gmail.com>]

rte_memcpy.h has
sperfluous type casting in several functions, remove those unnecessary casting.
while copying separate invocations of functions with changing offset, instead
offset can be calculated with loop.

Testing:
Compared code generated with and without changes with following gcc commands

gcc -O3 -m64 -S 

found no difference.

Tested on Ubuntu x86_64 (x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc) with "make test"

Overall tests passed matches baseline.

Secondly memcpy performace tests take similar amount of time to finish.

/**********************With changes*************************************/

/**********************Without changes**********************************/
