orangefs_statfs() copies two consecutive fields of the superblock into
the statfs structure, which triggers a warning from the string fortification
helpers:
In file included from fs/orangefs/super.c:8:
include/linux/fortify-string.h:592:4: error: call to '__read_overflow2_field' declared with 'warning' attribute: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror,-Wattribute-warning]
__read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size);
Change the memcpy() to an individual assignment of the two fields, which helps
both the compiler and human readers understand better what it does.

Resending to VFS maintainers, I sent this a couple of times to the
orangefs maintainers but never got a reply

Frankly, this initializer is hard to understand for me. Why not simple:
buf->f_fsid[0] = ORANGEFS_SB(sb)->fs_id;
buf->f_fsid[1] = ORANGEFS_SB(sb)->id;
