This could just be structure assignment which is type safe.

	*new = *old;

The driver is also using rte_memcpy for 2 byte values in bnx2x.c.

Another issue is the driver is using one element array as a flexible array.
A good static checker should catch this and report out of bounds access.

union bnx2x_stats_show_data {
    uint32_t op; /* ioctl sub-command */

    struct {
	uint32_t num; /* return number of stats */
	uint32_t len; /* length of each string item */
    } desc;

    /* variable length... */
    char str[1]; /* holds names of desc.num stats, each desc.len in length */

    /* variable length... */
    uint64_t stats[1]; /* holds all stats */
};
