Merge tag 'rust-6.10' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
 "The most notable change is the drop of the 'alloc' in-tree fork. This
  is nicely reflected in the diffstat as a ~10k lines drop. In turn,
  this makes the version upgrades way simpler and smaller in the future,
  e.g. the latest one in commit 56f64b370612 ("rust: upgrade to Rust
  1.78.0").

  More importantly, this increases the chances that a newer compiler
  version just works, which in turn means supporting several compiler
  versions is easier now. Thus we will look into finally setting a
  minimum version in the near future.

  Toolchain and infrastructure:

   - Upgrade to Rust 1.78.0

     This time around, due to how the kernel and Rust schedules have
     aligned, there are two upgrades in fact. These allow us to remove
     one more unstable feature ('offset_of') from the list, among other
     improvements

   - Drop 'alloc' in-tree fork of the standard library crate, which
     means all the unstable features used by 'alloc' (~30 language ones,
     ~60 library ones) are not a concern anymore

   - Support DWARFv5 via the '-Zdwarf-version' flag

   - Support zlib and zstd debuginfo compression via the
     '-Zdebuginfo-compression' flag

  'kernel' crate:

   - Support allocation flags ('GFP_*'), particularly in 'Box' (via
     'BoxExt'), 'Vec' (via 'VecExt'), 'Arc' and 'UniqueArc', as well as
     in the 'init' module APIs

   - Remove usage of the 'allocator_api' unstable feature

   - Remove 'try_' prefix in allocation APIs' names

   - Add 'VecExt' (an extension trait) to be able to drop the 'alloc'
     fork

   - Add the '{make,to}_{upper,lower}case()' methods to 'CStr'/'CString'

   - Add the 'as_ptr' method to 'ThisModule'

   - Add the 'from_raw' method to 'ArcBorrow'

   - Add the 'into_unique_or_drop' method to 'Arc'

   - Display column number in the 'dbg!' macro output by applying the
     equivalent change done to the standard library one

   - Migrate 'Work' to '#[pin_data]' thanks to the changes in the
     'macros' crate, which allows to remove an unsafe call in its 'new'
     associated function

   - Prevent namespacing issues when using the '[try_][pin_]init!'
     macros by changing the generated name of guard variables

   - Make the 'get' method in 'Opaque' const

   - Implement the 'Default' trait for 'LockClassKey'

   - Remove unneeded 'kernel::prelude' imports from doctests

   - Remove redundant imports

  'macros' crate:

   - Add 'decl_generics' to 'parse_generics()' to support default
     values, and use that to allow them in '#[pin_data]'

  Helpers:

   - Trivial English grammar fix

  Documentation:

   - Add section on Rust Kselftests to the 'Testing' document

   - Expand the 'Abstractions vs. bindings' section of the 'General
     Information' document"

+
+The main idea is to encapsulate all direct interaction with the kernel's C APIs
+into carefully reviewed and documented abstractions. Then users of these
+abstractions cannot introduce undefined behavior (UB) as long as:
+
+#. The abstractions are correct ("sound").
+#. Any ``unsafe`` blocks respect the safety contract necessary to call the
+   operations inside the block. Similarly, any ``unsafe impl``\ s respect the
+   safety contract necessary to implement the trait.
+
+Bindings
+~~~~~~~~
+
+By including a C header from ``include/`` into
+``rust/bindings/bindings_helper.h``, the ``bindgen`` tool will auto-generate the
+bindings for the included subsystem. After building, see the ``*_generated.rs``
+output files in the ``rust/bindings/`` directory.
+
+For parts of the C header that ``bindgen`` does not auto generate, e.g. C
+``inline`` functions or non-trivial macros, it is acceptable to add a small
+wrapper function to ``rust/helpers.c`` to make it available for the Rust side as
+well.
+
+Abstractions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Abstractions are the layer between the bindings and the in-kernel users. They
+are located in ``rust/kernel/`` and their role is to encapsulate the unsafe
+access to the bindings into an as-safe-as-possible API that they expose to their
+users. Users of the abstractions include things like drivers or file systems
+written in Rust.
+
+Besides the safety aspect, the abstractions are supposed to be "ergonomic", in
+the sense that they turn the C interfaces into "idiomatic" Rust code. Basic
+examples are to turn the C resource acquisition and release into Rust
+constructors and destructors or C integer error codes into Rust's ``Result``\ s.
