<content type='text'>
Several pr_info! calls in rust/kernel/init.rs (both in code examples
and macro documentation) were missing a newline, causing logs to
run together. This commit updates these calls to include a trailing
newline, improving readability and consistency with the C side.

According to [1], `NonNull&lt;T&gt;` and `#[repr(transparent)]` wrapper types
such as our custom `KBox&lt;T&gt;` have the null pointer optimization only if
`T: Sized`. Thus remove the `Zeroable` implementation for the unsized
case.

<title>rust: init: use explicit ABI to clean warning in future compilers</title>

<content type='text'>
Starting with Rust 1.86.0 (currently in nightly, to be released on
2025-04-03), the `missing_abi` lint is warn-by-default [1]:

    error: extern declarations without an explicit ABI are deprecated
        --&gt; rust/doctests_kernel_generated.rs:3158:1
         |
    3158 | extern {
         | ^^^^^^ help: explicitly specify the C ABI: `extern "C"`
         |
         = note: `-D missing-abi` implied by `-D warnings`
         = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(missing_abi)]`

Thus clean it up.

Use `?` operator in the doctests. Since it is in the examples,
using unwraps can convey a wrong impression that unwrapping is
fine in general, thus this patch removes this unwrapping.

Currently FFI integer types are defined in libcore. This commit creates
the `ffi` crate and asks bindgen to use that crate for FFI integer types
instead of `core::ffi`.

This commit is preparatory and no type changes are made in this commit
yet.

<title>rust: start using the `#[expect(...)]` attribute</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/linux/commit/?id=1f9ed172545687e5c04c77490a45896be6d2e459'/>
<id>urn:sha1:1f9ed172545687e5c04c77490a45896be6d2e459</id>
<content type='text'>
In Rust, it is possible to `allow` particular warnings (diagnostics,
lints) locally, making the compiler ignore instances of a given warning
within a given function, module, block, etc.

It is similar to `#pragma GCC diagnostic push` + `ignored` + `pop` in C:

    #pragma GCC diagnostic push
    #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-function"
    static void f(void) {}
    #pragma GCC diagnostic pop

But way less verbose:

    #[allow(dead_code)]
    fn f() {}

By that virtue, it makes it possible to comfortably enable more
diagnostics by default (i.e. outside `W=` levels) that may have some
false positives but that are otherwise quite useful to keep enabled to
catch potential mistakes.

The `#[expect(...)]` attribute [1] takes this further, and makes the
compiler warn if the diagnostic was _not_ produced. For instance, the
following will ensure that, when `f()` is called somewhere, we will have
to remove the attribute:

    #[expect(dead_code)]
    fn f() {}

If we do not, we get a warning from the compiler:

    warning: this lint expectation is unfulfilled
     --&gt; x.rs:3:10
      |
    3 | #[expect(dead_code)]
      |          ^^^^^^^^^
      |
      = note: `#[warn(unfulfilled_lint_expectations)]` on by default

This means that `expect`s do not get forgotten when they are not needed.

See the next commit for more details, nuances on its usage and
documentation on the feature.

The attribute requires the `lint_reasons` [2] unstable feature, but it
is becoming stable in 1.81.0 (to be released on 2024-09-05) and it has
already been useful to clean things up in this patch series, finding
cases where the `allow`s should not have been there.

Thus, enable `lint_reasons` and convert some of our `allow`s to `expect`s
where possible.

This feature was also an example of the ongoing collaboration between
Rust and the kernel -- we tested it in the kernel early on and found an
issue that was quickly resolved [3].

<title>rust: enable Clippy's `check-private-items`</title>

<id>urn:sha1:624063b9ac97f40cadca32a896aafeb28b1220fd</id>
<content type='text'>
In Rust 1.76.0, Clippy added the `check-private-items` lint configuration
option. When turned on (the default is off), it makes several lints
check private items as well.

In our case, it affects two lints we have enabled [1]:
`missing_safety_doc` and `unnecessary_safety_doc`.

It also seems to affect the new `too_long_first_doc_paragraph` lint [2],
even though the documentation does not mention it.

Thus allow the few instances remaining we currently hit and enable
the lint.
