>Description:
This patch fixes a minor bug in lib/libc/arch/aarch64/string/bcopy.S.
The spotted problem is a wrong address alignment check in backward_copy, which results in executing inappropriate piece of code (samealign_backward_small instead of notaligned_backward_small). The values being checked are SRC0 and DST0 which are addresses of the beginning of source buffer and the end of destination buffer respectively. Instead, we should check for alignment of the ends of buffers (so the addresses being checked should be SRC0 and DST), as we are about to perform a backward copy.
