Sorry, NAK.  This abuses fncpy().  There is extensive documentation on
the proper use of this in asm/fncpy.h, and anything that does not
conform, or which uses memcpy() to copy functions, gets an immediate
NAK from me.  fncpy() exists to avoid people doing broken things, and
it's written in such a way to help people get it right.
