I think I'll open code it like below. I'll include this in my next push
to net.

Subject: [PATCH] wireguard: netlink: avoid variable-sized memcpy on sockaddr

Doing a variable-sized memcpy is slower, and the compiler isn't smart
enough to turn this into a constant-size assignment.

Further, Kees' latest fortified memcpy will actually bark, because the
destination pointer is type sockaddr, not explicitly sockaddr_in or
sockaddr_in6, so it thinks there's an overflow:

    memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 28) of single field
    "&endpoint.addr" at drivers/net/wireguard/netlink.c:446 (size 16)

Fix this by just assigning by using explicit casts for each checked
case.
