gcc-8 points out that the skb_copy_to_linear_data() argument points to
the skb itself, which makes it run into a problem with overlapping
memcpy arguments:

In file included from include/linux/ip.h:20,
                 from drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c:26:
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c: In function 'ql_realign_skb':
include/linux/skbuff.h:3378:2: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
  memcpy(skb->data, from, len);

It's unclear to me what the best solution is, maybe it ought to use a
different helper that adjusts the skb data in a safe way. Simply using
memmove() here seems like the easiest workaround.
