Ah yes, I added it below to ensure we don't use memcpy with a null
__arr.data() and forgot to remove it here.

Good point, thanks.

That makes the lvalue and rvalue overloads identical for trivial types. It
seems a shame to duplicate the code, so the rvalue one could do:

  if constexpr (is_trivial_v<_Tp>)
   return std::to_array<_Tp, _Num>(__a);
 else

But that would imply an extra function call at -O0, and repeating overload
resolution. Since the duplicated code is just a single function call to
memcpy, this probably isn't an improvement.

I'll test and push this:

    libstdc++: Remove redundant code in std::to_array

    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

            * include/std/array (to_array(T(&)[N])): Remove redundant
            condition.
            (to_array(T(&&)[N])): Remove redundant std::move.
