I only found one suspect use of memcpy() in arch/powerpc/platforms/52xx/
It is in mpc52xx_pm.c but it's linked to CONFIG_PM which is not selected 
by your .config
I'll check in the drivers selected by your .config

In parallele, are you able to try with CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG in order 
to try and locate the blocking point ?
