[PATCH 3/4] bus/pci/bsd: Eliminate potential overflow

When calling rte_pci_write_config(), use memcpy(3) to copy @len bytes
of @buf into local memory instead of casting it to a uint32_t pointer
and dereferencing it. This prevents us from reading data outside of
@buf in the case that @buf has a length less than 32 bits.
