Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
 "Toolchain and infrastructure:

   - Add '__rust_helper' annotation to the C helpers

     This is needed to inline these helpers into Rust code

   - Remove imports available via the prelude, treewide

     This was possible thanks to a new lint in Klint that Gary has
     implemented -- more Klint-related changes, including initial
     upstream support, are coming

   - Deduplicate pin-init flags

  'kernel' crate:

   - Add support for calling a function exactly once with the new
     'do_once_lite!' macro (and 'OnceLite' type)

     Based on this, add 'pr_*_once!' macros to print only once

   - Add 'impl_flags!' macro for defining common bitflags operations:

         impl_flags!(
             /// Represents multiple permissions.
             #[derive(Debug, Clone, Default, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
             pub struct Permissions(u32);

             /// Represents a single permission.
             #[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
             pub enum Permission {
                 /// Read permission.
                 Read = 1 &lt;&lt; 0,

                 /// Write permission.
                 Write = 1 &lt;&lt; 1,

                 /// Execute permission.
                 Execute = 1 &lt;&lt; 2,
             }
         );

         let mut f: Permissions = Permission::Read | Permission::Write;
         assert!(f.contains(Permission::Read));
         assert!(!f.contains(Permission::Execute));

         f |= Permission::Execute;
         assert!(f.contains(Permission::Execute));

         let f2: Permissions = Permission::Write | Permission::Execute;
         assert!((f ^ f2).contains(Permission::Read));
         assert!(!(f ^ f2).contains(Permission::Write));

   - 'bug' module: support 'CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE_DETAILED' in the
     'warn_on!' macro in order to show the evaluated condition alongside
     the file path:

          ------------[ cut here ]------------
          WARNING: [val == 1] linux/samples/rust/rust_minimal.rs:27 at ...
          Modules linked in: rust_minimal(+)

   - Add safety module with 'unsafe_precondition_assert!' macro,
     currently a wrapper for 'debug_assert!', intended to mark the
     validation of safety preconditions where possible:

         /// # Safety
         ///
         /// The caller must ensure that `index` is less than `N`.
         unsafe fn set_unchecked(&amp;mut self, index: usize, value: T) {
             unsafe_precondition_assert!(
                 index &lt; N,
                 "set_unchecked() requires index ({index}) &lt; N ({N})"
             );

             ...
         }

   - Add instructions to 'build_assert!' documentation requesting to
     always inline functions when used with function arguments

   - 'ptr' module: replace 'build_assert!' with a 'const' one

   - 'rbtree' module: reduce unsafe blocks on pointer derefs

   - 'transmute' module: implement 'FromBytes' and 'AsBytes' for
     inhabited ZSTs, and use it in Nova

   - More treewide replacements of 'c_str!' with C string literals

  'macros' crate:

   - Rewrite most procedural macros ('module!', 'concat_idents!',
     '#[export]', '#[vtable]', '#[kunit_tests]') to use the 'syn'
     parsing library which we introduced last cycle, with better
     diagnostics

     This also allows to support '#[cfg]' properly in the '#[vtable]'
     macro, to support arbitrary types in 'module!' macro (not just an
     identifier) and to remove several custom parsing helpers we had

   - Use 'quote!' from the recently vendored 'quote' library and remove
     our custom one

     The vendored one also allows us to avoid quoting '"' and '{}'
     inside the template anymore and editors can now highlight it. In
     addition, it improves robustness as it eliminates the need for
     string quoting and escaping

   - Use 'pin_init::zeroed()' to simplify KUnit code

  'pin-init' crate:

   - Rewrite all procedural macros ('[pin_]init!', '#[pin_data]',
     '#[pinned_drop]', 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)') to use the 'syn'
     parsing library which we introduced last cycle, with better
     diagnostics

   - Implement 'InPlaceWrite' for '&amp;'static mut MaybeUninit&lt;T&gt;'. This
     enables users to use external allocation mechanisms such as
     'static_cell'

   - Support tuple structs in 'derive([Maybe]Zeroable)'

   - Support attributes on fields in '[pin_]init!' (such as
     '#[cfg(...)]')

   - Add a '#[default_error(&lt;type&gt;)]' attribute to '[pin_]init!' to
     override the default error (when no '? Error' is specified)

   - Support packed structs in '[pin_]init!' with
     '#[disable_initialized_field_access]'

   - Remove 'try_[pin_]init!' in favor of merging their feature with
     '[pin_]init!'. Update the kernel's own 'try_[pin_]init!' macros to
     use the 'default_error' attribute

   - Correct 'T: Sized' bounds to 'T: ?Sized' in the generated
     'PinnedDrop' check by '#[pin_data]'

  Documentation:

   - Conclude the Rust experiment

  MAINTAINERS:

   - Add "RUST [RUST-ANALYZER]" entry for the rust-analyzer support.
     Tamir and Jesung will take care of it. They have both been active
     around it for a while. The new tree will flow through the Rust one

   - Add Gary as maintainer for "RUST [PIN-INIT]"

   - Update Boqun and Tamir emails to their kernel.org accounts

  And a few other cleanups and improvements"

<content type='text'>
Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to use names such as `foo`, thus the
`clippy::disallowed_names` lint [1] gets in the way.

Thus allow it for all doctests.

In addition, remove it from the existing `expect`s we have in a few
doctests.

This does not mean that we should stop trying to find good names for
our examples, though.

thus the `unreachable_pub` warning is not very helpful.

Thus allow it for all doctests.

In addition, remove it from the existing `expect`s we have in a couple
doctests.

<id>urn:sha1:de7cd3e4d6387df6a5ae8c4c32ff0479ebe0efb5</id>
<content type='text'>
Macros and auto-generated code should use absolute paths, `::core::...`
and `::kernel::...`, for core and kernel references.

This prevents issues where user-defined modules named `core` or `kernel`
could be picked up instead of the `core` or `kernel` crates.

Thus clean some references up.

<id>urn:sha1:4e82c87058f45e79eeaa4d5bcc3b38dd3dce7209</id>
<content type='text'>
Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
 "Toolchain and infrastructure:

   - Extract the 'pin-init' API from the 'kernel' crate and make it into
     a standalone crate.

     In order to do this, the contents are rearranged so that they can
     easily be kept in sync with the version maintained out-of-tree that
     other projects have started to use too (or plan to, like QEMU).

     This will reduce the maintenance burden for Benno, who will now
     have his own sub-tree, and will simplify future expected changes
     like the move to use 'syn' to simplify the implementation.

   - Add '#[test]'-like support based on KUnit.

     We already had doctests support based on KUnit, which takes the
     examples in our Rust documentation and runs them under KUnit.

     Now, we are adding the beginning of the support for "normal" tests,
     similar to those the '#[test]' tests in userspace Rust. For
     instance:

         #[kunit_tests(my_suite)]
         mod tests {
             #[test]
             fn my_test() {
                 assert_eq!(1 + 1, 2);
             }
         }

     Unlike with doctests, the 'assert*!'s do not map to the KUnit
     assertion APIs yet.

   - Check Rust signatures at compile time for functions called from C
     by name.

     In particular, introduce a new '#[export]' macro that can be placed
     in the Rust function definition. It will ensure that the function
     declaration on the C side matches the signature on the Rust
     function:

         #[export]
         pub unsafe extern "C" fn my_function(a: u8, b: i32) -&gt; usize {
             // ...
         }

     The macro essentially forces the compiler to compare the types of
     the actual Rust function and the 'bindgen'-processed C signature.

     These cases are rare so far. In the future, we may consider
     introducing another tool, 'cbindgen', to generate C headers
     automatically. Even then, having these functions explicitly marked
     may be a good idea anyway.

   - Enable the 'raw_ref_op' Rust feature: it is already stable, and
     allows us to use the new '&amp;raw' syntax, avoiding a couple macros.
     After everyone has migrated, we will disallow the macros.

   - Pass the correct target to 'bindgen' on Usermode Linux.

   - Fix 'rusttest' build in macOS.

  'kernel' crate:

   - New 'hrtimer' module: add support for setting up intrusive timers
     without allocating when starting the timer. Add support for
     'Pin&lt;Box&lt;_&gt;&gt;', 'Arc&lt;_&gt;', 'Pin&lt;&amp;_&gt;' and 'Pin&lt;&amp;mut _&gt;' as pointer
     types for use with timer callbacks. Add support for setting clock
     source and timer mode.

   - New 'dma' module: add a simple DMA coherent allocator abstraction
     and a test sample driver.

   - 'list' module: make the linked list 'Cursor' point between
     elements, rather than at an element, which is more convenient to us
     and allows for cursors to empty lists; and document it with
     examples of how to perform common operations with the provided
     methods.

   - 'str' module: implement a few traits for 'BStr' as well as the
     'strip_prefix()' method.

   - 'sync' module: add 'Arc::as_ptr'.

   - 'alloc' module: add 'Box::into_pin'.

   - 'error' module: extend the 'Result' documentation, including a few
     examples on different ways of handling errors, a warning about
     using methods that may panic, and links to external documentation.

  'macros' crate:

   - 'module' macro: add the 'authors' key to support multiple authors.
     The original key will be kept until everyone has migrated.

  Documentation:

   - Add error handling sections.

  MAINTAINERS:

   - Add Danilo Krummrich as reviewer of the Rust "subsystem".

   - Add 'RUST [PIN-INIT]' entry with Benno Lossin as maintainer. It has
     its own sub-tree.

   - Add sub-tree for 'RUST [ALLOC]'.

   - Add 'DMA MAPPING HELPERS DEVICE DRIVER API [RUST]' entry with
     Abdiel Janulgue as primary maintainer. It will go through the
     sub-tree of the 'RUST [ALLOC]' entry.

   - Add 'HIGH-RESOLUTION TIMERS [RUST]' entry with Andreas Hindborg as
     maintainer. It has its own sub-tree.

  And a few other cleanups and improvements"
