Pull Char/Misc/IIO/Binder updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of char/misc/iio and other driver subsystem
changes for 6.18-rc1.
Loads of different stuff in here, it was a busy development cycle in
lots of different subsystems, with over 27k new lines added to the
tree.
Included in here are:
- IIO updates including new drivers, reworking of existing apis, and
other goodness in the sensor subsystems
- MEI driver updates and additions
- NVMEM driver updates
- slimbus removal for an unused driver and some other minor updates
- coresight driver updates and additions
- MHI driver updates
- comedi driver updates and fixes
- extcon driver updates
- interconnect driver additions
- eeprom driver updates and fixes
- minor UIO driver updates
- tiny W1 driver updates
But the majority of new code is in the rust bindings and additions,
which includes:
- misc driver rust binding updates for read/write support, we can now
write "normal" misc drivers in rust fully, and the sample driver
shows how this can be done.
- Initial framework for USB driver rust bindings, which are disabled
for now in the build, due to limited support, but coming in through
this tree due to dependencies on other rust binding changes that
were in here. I'll be enabling these back on in the build in the
usb.git tree after -rc1 is out so that developers can continue to
work on these in linux-next over the next development cycle.
- Android Binder driver implemented in Rust.
This is the big one, and was driving a huge majority of the rust
binding work over the past years. Right now there are two binder
drivers in the kernel, selected only at build time as to which one
to use as binder wants to be included in the system at boot time.
The binder C maintainers all agreed on this, as eventually, they
want the C code to be removed from the tree, but it will take a few
releases to get there while both are maintained to ensure that the
rust implementation is fully stable and compliant with the existing
userspace apis.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while"

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Enable a set of Clippy lints: 'ptr_as_ptr', 'ptr_cast_constness',
'as_ptr_cast_mut', 'as_underscore', 'cast_lossless' and
'ref_as_ptr'
These are intended to avoid type casts with the 'as' operator,
which are quite powerful, into restricted variants that are less
powerful and thus should help to avoid mistakes
- Remove the 'author' key now that most instances were moved to the
plural one in the previous cycle
'kernel' crate:
- New 'bug' module: add 'warn_on!' macro which reuses the existing
'BUG'/'WARN' infrastructure, i.e. it respects the usual sysctls and
kernel parameters:
warn_on!(value == 42);
To avoid duplicating the assembly code, the same strategy is
followed as for the static branch code in order to share the
assembly between both C and Rust
This required a few rearrangements on C arch headers -- the
existing C macros should still generate the same outputs, thus no
functional change expected there
- 'workqueue' module: add delayed work items, including a
'DelayedWork' struct, a 'impl_has_delayed_work!' macro and an
'enqueue_delayed' method, e.g.:
/// Enqueue the struct for execution on the system workqueue,
/// where its value will be printed 42 jiffies later.
fn print_later(value: Arc<MyStruct>) {
let _ = workqueue::system().enqueue_delayed(value, 42);
}
- New 'bits' module: add support for 'bit' and 'genmask' functions,
with runtime- and compile-time variants, e.g.:
static_assert!(0b00010000 == bit_u8(4));
static_assert!(0b00011110 == genmask_u8(1..=4));
assert!(checked_bit_u32(u32::BITS).is_none());
- 'uaccess' module: add 'UserSliceReader::strcpy_into_buf', which
reads NUL-terminated strings from userspace into a '&CStr'
Introduce 'UserPtr' newtype, similar in purpose to '__user' in C,
to minimize mistakes handling userspace pointers, including mixing
them up with integers and leaking them via the 'Debug' trait. Add
it to the prelude, too
- Start preparations for the replacement of our custom 'CStr' type
with the analogous type in the 'core' standard library. This will
take place across several cycles to make it easier. For this one,
it includes a new 'fmt' module, using upstream method names and
some other cleanups
Replace 'fmt!' with a re-export, which helps Clippy lint properly,
and clean up the found 'uninlined-format-args' instances
- 'dma' module:
- Clarify wording and be consistent in 'coherent' nomenclature
- Convert the 'read!()' and 'write!()' macros to return a 'Result'
- Add 'as_slice()', 'write()' methods in 'CoherentAllocation'
- Expose 'count()' and 'size()' in 'CoherentAllocation' and add
the corresponding type invariants
- Implement 'CoherentAllocation::dma_handle_with_offset()'
- 'time' module:
- Make 'Instant' generic over clock source. This allows the
compiler to assert that arithmetic expressions involving the
'Instant' use 'Instants' based on the same clock source
- Make 'HrTimer' generic over the timer mode. 'HrTimer' timers
take a 'Duration' or an 'Instant' when setting the expiry time,
depending on the timer mode. With this change, the compiler can
check the type matches the timer mode
- Add an abstraction for 'fsleep'. 'fsleep' is a flexible sleep
function that will select an appropriate sleep method depending
on the requested sleep time
- Avoid 64-bit divisions on 32-bit hardware when calculating
timestamps
- Seal the 'HrTimerMode' trait. This prevents users of the
'HrTimerMode' from implementing the trait on their own types
- Pass the correct timer mode ID to 'hrtimer_start_range_ns()'
- 'list' module: remove 'OFFSET' constants, allowing to remove
pointer arithmetic; now 'impl_list_item!' invokes
'impl_has_list_links!' or 'impl_has_list_links_self_ptr!'. Other
simplifications too
- 'types' module: remove 'ForeignOwnable::PointedTo' in favor of a
constant, which avoids exposing the type of the opaque pointer, and
require 'into_foreign' to return non-null
Remove the 'Either<L, R>' type as well. It is unused, and we want
to encourage the use of custom enums for concrete use cases
- 'sync' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Arc' types
to allow them to be used in generic APIs
- 'alloc' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Box<T, A>';
and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec<T, A>'
- 'Opaque' type: add 'cast_from' method to perform a restricted cast
that cannot change the inner type and use it in callers of
'container_of!'. Rename 'raw_get' to 'cast_into' to match it
- 'rbtree' module: add 'is_empty' method
- 'sync' module: new 'aref' submodule to hold 'AlwaysRefCounted' and
'ARef', which are moved from the too general 'types' module which
we want to reduce or eventually remove. Also fix a safety comment
in 'static_lock_class'
'pin-init' crate:
- Add 'impl<T, E> [Pin]Init<T, E> for Result<T, E>', so results are
now (pin-)initializers
- Add 'Zeroable::init_zeroed()' that delegates to 'init_zeroed()'
- New 'zeroed()', a safe version of 'mem::zeroed()' and also provide
it via 'Zeroable::zeroed()'
- Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option<&T>', 'Option<&mut T>' and for
'Option<[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -> ret>' for
'"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments
- Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl<T, E>
[Pin]Init<T, E> for T' to 'impl<T> [Pin]Init<T> for T'
- Renamed 'zeroed()' to 'init_zeroed()'
- Upstream dev news: improve CI more to deny warnings, use
'--all-targets'. Check the synchronization status of the two
'-next' branches in upstream and the kernel

The current implementation of `ForeignOwnable` is leaking the type of the opaque pointer to consumers of the API. This allows consumers of the opaque pointer to rely on the information that can be extracted from the pointer type. To prevent this, change the API to the version suggested by Maira Canal (link below): Remove `ForeignOwnable::PointedTo` in favor of a constant, which specifies the alignment of the pointers returned by `into_foreign`. With this change, `ArcInner` no longer needs `pub` visibility, so change it to private.

Reword and expand the invariant documentation for `MiscDeviceRegistration`
to clarify what it means for the inner device to be "registered".
It expands to explain:
- `inner` points to a `miscdevice` registered via `misc_register`.
- This registration stays valid for the entire lifetime of the object.
- Deregistration is guaranteed on `Drop`, via `misc_deregister`.

In Rust 1.63.0, Clippy introduced the `as_underscore` lint [1]: > The conversion might include lossy conversion or a dangerous cast that > might go undetected due to the type being inferred. > > The lint is allowed by default as using `_` is less wordy than always > specifying the type. Always specifying the type is especially helpful in function call contexts where the inferred type may change at a distance. Specifying the type also allows Clippy to spot more cases of `useless_conversion`. The primary downside is the need to specify the type in trivial getters. There are 4 such functions: 3 have become slightly less ergonomic, 1 was revealed to be a `useless_conversion`. While this doesn't eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such conversions easier to scrutinize. It also has the slight benefit of removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed. Thus apply the changes and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.
