commit 58eff8e872bd04ccb3adcf99aec7334ffad06cfd upstream.

Now that we got the kernel `Vec` in place, convert all existing `Vec`
users to make use of it.

<title>rust: sync: require `T: Sync` for `LockedBy::access`</title>

<id>a8ee30f45d5d57467ddb7877ed6914d0eba0af7f</id>
<content type='text'>
The `LockedBy::access` method only requires a shared reference to the
owner, so if we have shared access to the `LockedBy` from several
threads at once, then two threads could call `access` in parallel and
both obtain a shared reference to the inner value. Thus, require that
`T: Sync` when calling the `access` method.

An alternative is to require `T: Sync` in the `impl Sync for LockedBy`.
This patch does not choose that approach as it gives up the ability to
use `LockedBy` with `!Sync` types, which is okay as long as you only use
`access_mut`.

This allows us to have data protected by a lock despite not being
wrapped by it. Access is granted by providing evidence that the lock is
held by the caller.
