Kernel panics because it detects UFFD inconsistency during
userfaultfd_release_all().  Specifically, a VMA which has a valid pointer
to vma-&gt;vm_userfaultfd_ctx, but no UFFD flags in vma-&gt;vm_flags.

The inconsistency is caused in ksm_madvise(): when user calls madvise()
with MADV_UNMEARGEABLE on a VMA that is registered for UFFD in MINOR mode,
it accidentally clears all flags stored in the upper 32 bits of
vma-&gt;vm_flags.

Assuming x86_64 kernel build, unsigned long is 64-bit and unsigned int and
int are 32-bit wide.  This setup causes the following mishap during the &amp;=
~VM_MERGEABLE assignment.

VM_MERGEABLE is a 32-bit constant of type unsigned int, 0x8000'0000.
After ~ is applied, it becomes 0x7fff'ffff unsigned int, which is then
promoted to unsigned long before the &amp; operation.  This promotion fills
upper 32 bits with leading 0s, as we're doing unsigned conversion (and
even for a signed conversion, this wouldn't help as the leading bit is 0).
&amp; operation thus ends up AND-ing vm_flags with 0x0000'0000'7fff'ffff
instead of intended 0xffff'ffff'7fff'ffff and hence accidentally clears
the upper 32-bits of its value.

Fix it by changing `VM_MERGEABLE` constant to unsigned long, using the
BIT() macro.

Note: other VM_* flags are not affected: This only happens to the
VM_MERGEABLE flag, as the other VM_* flags are all constants of type int
and after ~ operation, they end up with leading 1 and are thus converted
to unsigned long with leading 1s.

Note 2:
After commit 31defc3b01d9 ("userfaultfd: remove (VM_)BUG_ON()s"), this is
no longer a kernel BUG, but a WARNING at the same place:

[   45.595973] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2474 at mm/userfaultfd.c:2067

but the root-cause (flag-drop) remains the same.

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&lt;MyStruct&gt;) {
             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 '&amp;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&lt;L, R&gt;' 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&lt;T, A&gt;';
     and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec&lt;T, A&gt;'

   - '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&lt;T, E&gt; [Pin]Init&lt;T, E&gt; for Result&lt;T, E&gt;', 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&lt;&amp;T&gt;', 'Option&lt;&amp;mut T&gt;' and for
     'Option&lt;[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -&gt; ret&gt;' for
     '"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments

   - Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl&lt;T, E&gt;
     [Pin]Init&lt;T, E&gt; for T' to 'impl&lt;T&gt; [Pin]Init&lt;T&gt; 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

  MAINTAINERS:

   - Add Vlastimil Babka, Liam R. Howlett, Uladzislau Rezki and Lorenzo
     Stoakes as reviewers (thanks everyone)

  And a few other cleanups and improvements"

     Remove the 'Either&lt;L, R&gt;' 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&lt;T, A&gt;';
     and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec&lt;T, A&gt;'

   - '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&lt;T, E&gt; [Pin]Init&lt;T, E&gt; for Result&lt;T, E&gt;', 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&lt;&amp;T&gt;', 'Option&lt;&amp;mut T&gt;' and for
     'Option&lt;[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -&gt; ret&gt;' for
     '"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments

   - Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl&lt;T, E&gt;
     [Pin]Init&lt;T, E&gt; for T' to 'impl&lt;T&gt; [Pin]Init&lt;T&gt; 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

  MAINTAINERS:

   - Add Vlastimil Babka, Liam R. Howlett, Uladzislau Rezki and Lorenzo
     Stoakes as reviewers (thanks everyone)

  And a few other cleanups and improvements"

In preparation for ioremap support, add a Rust abstraction for struct
resource.

A future commit will introduce the Rust API to ioremap a resource from a
platform device. The current abstraction, therefore, adds only the
minimum API needed to get that done.

<content type='text'>
Add a bare minimum regulator abstraction to be used by Rust drivers.
This abstraction adds a small subset of the regulator API, which is
thought to be sufficient for the drivers we have now.

Regulators provide the power needed by many hardware blocks and thus are
likely to be needed by a lot of drivers.

It was tested on rk3588, where it was used to power up the "mali"
regulator in order to power up the GPU.

Extend the `Adapter` trait to support ACPI device identification.

This mirrors the existing Open Firmware (OF) support (`of_id_table`) and
enables Rust drivers to match and retrieve ACPI-specific device data
when `CONFIG_ACPI` is enabled.

To avoid breaking compilation, a stub implementation of `acpi_id_table()`
is added to the Platform adapter; the full implementation will be provided
in a subsequent patch.

In Rust 1.78.0, Clippy introduced the `ref_as_ptr` lint [1]:

&gt; Using `as` casts may result in silently changing mutability or type.

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.

<content type='text'>
Before Rust 1.29.0, Clippy introduced the `cast_lossless` lint [1]:

&gt; Rust’s `as` keyword will perform many kinds of conversions, including
&gt; silently lossy conversions. Conversion functions such as `i32::from`
&gt; will only perform lossless conversions. Using the conversion functions
&gt; prevents conversions from becoming silently lossy if the input types
&gt; ever change, and makes it clear for people reading the code that the
&gt; conversion is lossless.

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.

Before Rust 1.29.0, Clippy introduced the `cast_lossless` lint [1]:

&gt; Rust’s `as` keyword will perform many kinds of conversions, including
&gt; silently lossy conversions. Conversion functions such as `i32::from`
&gt; will only perform lossless conversions. Using the conversion functions
&gt; prevents conversions from becoming silently lossy if the input types
&gt; ever change, and makes it clear for people reading the code that the
&gt; conversion is lossless.

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.

In Rust 1.51.0, Clippy introduced the `ptr_as_ptr` lint [1]:

&gt; Though `as` casts between raw pointers are not terrible,
&gt; `pointer::cast` is safer because it cannot accidentally change the
&gt; pointer's mutability, nor cast the pointer to other types like `usize`.

There are a few classes of changes required:
- Modules generated by bindgen are marked
  `#[allow(clippy::ptr_as_ptr)]`.
- Inferred casts (` as _`) are replaced with `.cast()`.
- Ascribed casts (` as *... T`) are replaced with `.cast::&lt;T&gt;()`.
- Multistep casts from references (` as *const _ as *const T`) are
  replaced with `core::ptr::from_ref(&amp;x).cast()` with or without `::&lt;T&gt;`
  according to the previous rules. The `core::ptr::from_ref` call is
  required because `(x as *const _).cast::&lt;T&gt;()` results in inference
  failure.
- Native literal C strings are replaced with `c_str!().as_char_ptr()`.
- `*mut *mut T as _` is replaced with `let *mut *const T = (*mut *mut
  T)`.cast();` since pointer to pointer can be confusing.

Apply these changes and enable the lint -- no functional change
intended.

Implement a minimal abstraction for the completion synchronization
primitive.

This initial abstraction only adds complete_all() and
wait_for_completion(), since that is what is required for the subsequent
Devres patch.
