Merge tag 'rust-6.4' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux

Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda
 "More additions to the Rust core. Importantly, this adds the pin-init
  API, which will be used by other abstractions, such as the
  synchronization ones added here too:

   - pin-init API: a solution for the safe pinned initialization
     problem.

     This allows to reduce the need for 'unsafe' code in the kernel when
     dealing with data structures that require a stable address. Commit
     90e53c5e70a6 ("rust: add pin-init API core") contains a nice
     introduction -- here is an example of how it looks like:

        #[pin_data]
        struct Example {
            #[pin]
            value: Mutex<u32>,

            #[pin]
            value_changed: CondVar,
        }

        impl Example {
            fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
                pin_init!(Self {
                    value <- new_mutex!(0),
                    value_changed <- new_condvar!(),
                })
            }
        }

        // In a `Box`.
        let b = Box::pin_init(Example::new())?;

        // In the stack.
        stack_pin_init!(let s = Example::new());

   - 'sync' module:

     New types 'LockClassKey' ('struct lock_class_key'), 'Lock',
     'Guard', 'Mutex' ('struct mutex'), 'SpinLock' ('spinlock_t'),
     'LockedBy' and 'CondVar' (uses 'wait_queue_head_t'), plus macros
     such as 'static_lock_class!' and 'new_spinlock!'.

     In particular, 'Lock' and 'Guard' are generic implementations that
     contain code that is common to all locks. Then, different backends
     (the new 'Backend' trait) are implemented and used to define types
     like 'Mutex':

        type Mutex<T> = Lock<T, MutexBackend>;

     In addition, new methods 'assume_init()', 'init_with()' and
     'pin_init_with()' for 'UniqueArc<MaybeUninit<T>>' and 'downcast()'
     for 'Arc<dyn Any + Send + Sync>'; as well as 'Debug' and 'Display'
     implementations for 'Arc' and 'UniqueArc'. Reduced stack usage of
     'UniqueArc::try_new_uninit()', too.

   - 'types' module:

     New trait 'AlwaysRefCounted' and new type 'ARef' (an owned
     reference to an always-reference-counted object, meant to be used
     in wrappers for C types that have their own ref counting
     functions).

     Moreover, new associated functions 'raw_get()' and 'ffi_init()' for
     'Opaque'.

   - New 'task' module with a new type 'Task' ('struct task_struct'),
     and a new macro 'current!' to safely get a reference to the current
     one.

   - New 'ioctl' module with new '_IOC*' const functions (equivalent to
     the C macros).

   - New 'uapi' crate, intended to be accessible by drivers directly.

   - 'macros' crate: new 'quote!' macro (similar to the one provided in
     userspace by the 'quote' crate); and the 'module!' macro now allows
     specifying multiple module aliases.

   - 'error' module:

     New associated functions for the 'Error' type, such as
     'from_errno()' and new functions such as 'to_result()'.

   - 'alloc' crate:

     More fallible 'Vec' methods: 'try_resize` and
     'try_extend_from_slice' and the infrastructure (imported from the
     Rust standard library) they need"
