<content type='text'>
The documentation examples in rust/kernel/workqueue.rs use pr_info!
calls that lack a trailing newline. To maintain consistency with
kernel logging practices, this patch adds the newline to all
affected examples.

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

   - Finish the move to custom FFI integer types started in the previous
     cycle and finally map 'long' to 'isize' and 'char' to 'u8'. Do a
     few cleanups on top thanks to that.

   - Start to use 'derive(CoercePointee)' on Rust &gt;= 1.84.0.

     This is a major milestone on the path to build the kernel using
     only stable Rust features. In particular, previously we were using
     the unstable features 'coerce_unsized', 'dispatch_from_dyn' and
     'unsize', and now we will use the new 'derive_coerce_pointee' one,
     which is on track to stabilization. This new feature is a macro
     that essentially expands into code that internally uses the
     unstable features that we were using before, without having to
     expose those.

     With it, stable Rust users, including the kernel, will be able to
     build custom smart pointers that work with trait objects, e.g.:

         fn f(p: &amp;Arc&lt;dyn Display&gt;) {
             pr_info!("{p}\n");
         }

         let a: Arc&lt;dyn Display&gt; = Arc::new(42i32, GFP_KERNEL)?;
         let b: Arc&lt;dyn Display&gt; = Arc::new("hello there", GFP_KERNEL)?;

         f(&amp;a); // Prints "42".
         f(&amp;b); // Prints "hello there".

     Together with the 'arbitrary_self_types' feature that we started
     using in the previous cycle, using our custom smart pointers like
     'Arc' will eventually only rely in stable Rust.

   - Introduce 'PROCMACROLDFLAGS' environment variable to allow to link
     Rust proc macros using different flags than those used for linking
     Rust host programs (e.g. when 'rustc' uses a different C library
     than the host programs' one), which Android needs.

   - Help kernel builds under macOS with Rust enabled by accomodating
     other naming conventions for dynamic libraries (i.e. '.so' vs.
     '.dylib') which are used for Rust procedural macros. The actual
     support for macOS (i.e. the rest of the pieces needed) is provided
     out-of-tree by others, following the policy used for other parts of
     the kernel by Kbuild.

   - Run Clippy for 'rusttest' code too and clean the bits it spotted.

   - Provide Clippy with the minimum supported Rust version to improve
     the suggestions it gives.

   - Document 'bindgen' 0.71.0 regression.

  'kernel' crate:

   - 'build_error!': move users of the hidden function to the documented
     macro, prevent such uses in the future by moving the function
     elsewhere and add the macro to the prelude.

   - 'types' module: add improved version of 'ForeignOwnable::borrow_mut'
     (which was removed in the past since it was problematic); change
     'ForeignOwnable' pointer type to '*mut'.

   - 'alloc' module: implement 'Display' for 'Box' and align the 'Debug'
     implementation to it; add example (doctest) for 'ArrayLayout::new()'

   - 'sync' module: document 'PhantomData' in 'Arc'; use
     'NonNull::new_unchecked' in 'ForeignOwnable for Arc' impl.

   - 'uaccess' module: accept 'Vec's with different allocators in
     'UserSliceReader::read_all'.

   - 'workqueue' module: enable run-testing a couple more doctests.

   - 'error' module: simplify 'from_errno()'.

   - 'block' module: fix formatting in code documentation (a lint to catch
     these is being implemented).

   - Avoid 'unwrap()'s in doctests, which also improves the examples by
     showing how kernel code is supposed to be written.

   - Avoid 'as' casts with 'cast{,_mut}' calls which are a bit safer.

  And a few other cleanups"

<title>rust: workqueue: Enable execution of doctests</title>

<content type='text'>
Having the Rust doctests enabled these workqueue tests are built but not
executed as the final callers of the print_*() functions are missing.
Add them.

The result is

        # rust_doctest_kernel_workqueue_rs_0.location: rust/kernel/workqueue.rs:35
    rust_doctests_kernel: The value is: 42
        ok 94 rust_doctest_kernel_workqueue_rs_0
        # rust_doctest_kernel_workqueue_rs_3.location: rust/kernel/workqueue.rs:78
    rust_doctests_kernel: The value is: 24
    rust_doctests_kernel: The second value is: 42
        ok 97 rust_doctest_kernel_workqueue_rs_3

Without this change the "The value ..." outputs are not there meaning
that this test code is not run.

<content type='text'>
In Rust 1.67.0, Clippy added the `unnecessary_safety_comment` lint [1],
which is the "inverse" of `undocumented_unsafe_blocks`: it finds places
where safe code has a `// SAFETY` comment attached.

The lint currently finds 3 places where we had such mistakes, thus it
seems already quite useful.

Thus clean those and enable it.

<content type='text'>
Checking that we are not missing any `// SAFETY` comments in our `unsafe`
blocks is something we have wanted to do for a long time, as well as
cleaning up the remaining cases that were not documented [1].

Back when Rust for Linux started, this was something that could have
been done via a script, like Rust's `tidy`. Soon after, in Rust 1.58.0,
Clippy implemented the `undocumented_unsafe_blocks` lint [2].

Even though the lint has a few false positives, e.g. in some cases where
attributes appear between the comment and the `unsafe` block [3], there
are workarounds and the lint seems quite usable already.

Thus enable the lint now.

We still have a few cases to clean up, so just allow those for the moment
by writing a `TODO` comment -- some of those may be good candidates for
new contributors.

<content type='text'>
Perform the same clean commit b2516f7af9d2 ("rust: kernel: remove
`#[allow(clippy::new_ret_no_self)]`") did for a case that appeared in
workqueue in parallel in commit 7324b88975c5 ("rust: workqueue: add
helper for defining work_struct fields"):

    Clippy triggered a false positive on its `new_ret_no_self` lint
    when using the `pin_init!` macro. Since Rust 1.67.0, that does
    not happen anymore, since Clippy learnt to not warn about
    `-&gt; impl Trait&lt;Self&gt;` [1][2].

    The kernel nowadays uses Rust 1.72.1, thus remove the `#[allow]`.

Rust's `unused_imports` lint covers both unused and redundant imports.
In the upcoming 1.78.0, the lint detects more cases of redundant imports
[1], e.g.:

    error: the item `bindings` is imported redundantly
      --&gt; rust/kernel/print.rs:38:9
       |
    38 |     use crate::bindings;
       |         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the item `bindings` is already defined by prelude

Most cases are `use crate::bindings`, plus a few other items like `Box`.
Thus clean them up.

Note that, in the `bindings` case, the message "defined by prelude"
above means the extern prelude, i.e. the `--extern` flags we pass.
