x86-64: Fix memcpy() to support sizes of 4Gb and above
While currently there doesn't appear to be any reachable in-tree case where such large memory blocks may be passed to memcpy(), we already had hit the problem in our Xen kernels. Just like done recently for mmeset(), rather than working around it, prevent others from falling into the same trap by fixing this long standing limitation.
