Haneen Mohammed e0e982b436 Staging: rtl8712: replace memcpy with ether_addr_copy

This patch replace memcpy with ethe_addr_copy to address the following
warning generated by checkpatch.pl: ""Prefer ether_addr_copy over memcpy
if the Ethernet addresses are __aligned(2)"

Follwoing is the output of pahole for the relevant datastructures:
1- for  "iwe.u.ap_addr.sa_data" and "wrqu->ap_addr.sa_data"

struct sockaddr {

        /* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 2 */
        /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};

struct iw_event {
        __u16                      len;                  /*     0     2 */

        /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */
