staging: rtl8712: fix Prefer ether_addr_copy() over memcpy()
This patch fixes the following checkpatch.pl warning: Prefer ether_addr_copy() over memcpy() if the Ethernet addresses are __aligned(2) pahole showed that the struct used pnetdev->dev_addr is aligned to u16. Moreover mac is a simple array, pdata is a pointer that starts from an even offset.
