f444a5ff95 ("x86/cpufeatures: Add support for fast short REP; MOVSB")
fixed memmove() with an ALTERNATIVE that will use REP MOVSB for all
string lengths.
copy_user_enhanced_fast_string() has a similar run time check to avoid
using REP MOVSB for copies less that 64 bytes.
Add an ALTERNATIVE to patch out the short length check and always use
REP MOVSB on X86_FEATURE_FSRM CPUs.

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.
