[PATCH v2] mwl8k: Avoid memcpy() over-reading of mcs.rx_mask

[PATCH v2] mwl8k: Avoid memcpy() over-reading of mcs.rx_mask

[Kees Cook]

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid
intentionally reading across neighboring array fields. Use the
sub-structure address directly.
