commit eb71feaacaaca227ae8f91c8578cf831553c5ab5 upstream.

Commit dbd5058ba60c ("rust: make pin-init its own crate") moved all
items from pin-init into the pin-init crate, including the
`assert_pinned!` macro.

Thus fix the path of the sole user of the `assert_pinned!` macro.

This occurrence was missed in the commit above, since it is in a macro
rule that has no current users (although binder is a future user).

<title>rust: compile libcore with edition 2024 for 1.87+</title>

commit f4daa80d6be7d3c55ca72a8e560afc4e21f886aa upstream.

Rust 1.87 (released on 2025-05-15) compiles core library with edition
2024 instead of 2021 [1]. Ensure that the edition matches libcore's
expectation to avoid potential breakage.

[ J3m3 reported in Zulip [2] that the `rust-analyzer` target was
  broken after this patch -- indeed, we need to avoid `core-cfgs`
  since those are passed to the `rust-analyzer` target.

  So, instead, I tweaked the patch to create a new `core-edition`
  variable and explicitly mention the `--edition` flag instead of
  reusing `core-cfg`s.

  In addition, pass a new argument using this new variable to
  `generate_rust_analyzer.py` so that we set the right edition there.

  By the way, for future reference: the `filter-out` change is needed
  for Rust &lt; 1.87, since otherwise we would skip the `--edition=2021`
  we just added, ending up with no edition flag, and thus the compiler
  would default to the 2015 one.

[ Upstream commit 1dbaf8b1bafb8557904eb54b98bb323a3061dd2c ]

In particular:

  - Add missing Markdown code spans.

  - Improve title for `DeviceId`, adding a link to the struct in the
    C side, rather than referring to `bindings::`.

  - Convert `TODO` from documentation to a normal comment, and put code
    in block.

This was found using the Clippy `doc_markdown` lint, which we may want
to enable.

[ Upstream commit 15ecd83dc06277385ad71dc7ea26911d9a79acaf ]

Unsafe code in `LocalFile`'s methods assumes that the type has the same
layout as the inner `bindings::file`. This is not guaranteed by the default
struct representation in Rust, but requires specifying the `transparent`
representation.

The `File` struct (which also wraps `bindings::file`) is already marked as
`repr(transparent)`, so this change makes their layouts equivalent.

<title>rust: clean Rust 1.88.0's `clippy::uninlined_format_args` lint</title>

Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (expected 2025-06-26) [1], `rustc` may move
back the `uninlined_format_args` to `style` from `pedantic` (it was
there waiting for rust-analyzer suppotr), and thus we will start to see
lints like:

    warning: variables can be used directly in the `format!` string
       --&gt; rust/macros/kunit.rs:105:37
        |
    105 |         let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{}", test);
        |                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        |
        = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#uninlined_format_args

    105 -         let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{}", test);
    105 +         let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{test}");

There is even a case that is a pure removal:

    warning: variables can be used directly in the `format!` string
      --&gt; rust/macros/module.rs:51:13
       |

The lints all seem like nice cleanups, thus just apply them.

We may want to disable `allow-mixed-uninlined-format-args` in the future.

<content type='text'>
Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (expected 2025-06-26) [1][2], `rustc` may
introduce a new lint that catches unnecessary transmutes, e.g.:

     error: unnecessary transmute
         --&gt; rust/uapi/uapi_generated.rs:23242:18
          |
    23242 |         unsafe { ::core::mem::transmute(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8) }
          |                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: replace this with: `(self._bitfield_1.get(0usize, 1u8) as u8 == 1)`
          |
          = note: `-D unnecessary-transmutes` implied by `-D warnings`
          = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(unnecessary_transmutes)]`

There are a lot of them (at least 300), but luckily they are all in
`bindgen`-generated code.

Thus clean all up by allowing it there.

Since unknown lints trigger a lint itself in older compilers, do it
conditionally so that we can keep the `unknown_lints` lint enabled.

<title>rust: allow Rust 1.87.0's `clippy::ptr_eq` lint</title>

<content type='text'>
Starting with Rust 1.87.0 (expected 2025-05-15) [1], Clippy may expand
the `ptr_eq` lint, e.g.:

    error: use `core::ptr::eq` when comparing raw pointers
       --&gt; rust/kernel/list.rs:438:12
        |
    438 |         if self.first == item {
        |            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: try: `core::ptr::eq(self.first, item)`
        |
        = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#ptr_eq
        = note: `-D clippy::ptr-eq` implied by `-D warnings`
        = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(clippy::ptr_eq)]`

It is expected that a PR to relax the lint will be backported [2] by
the time Rust 1.87.0 releases, since the lint was considered too eager
(at least by default) [3].

Thus allow the lint temporarily just in case.

Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here are some small driver core fixes to resolve a number of reported
  problems. Included in here are:

   - driver core sync fix revert to resolve a much reported problem,
     hopefully this is finally resolved

   - MAINTAINERS file update, documenting that the driver-core tree is
     now under a "shared" maintainership model, thanks to Rafael and
     Danilo for offering to do this!

   - auxbus documentation and MAINTAINERS file update

   - MAINTAINERS file update for Rust PCI code

   - firmware rust binding fixup

   - software node link fix

  All of these have been in linux-next for over a week with no reported
  issues"

* tag 'driver-core-6.15-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core:
  drivers/base/memory: Avoid overhead from for_each_present_section_nr()
  software node: Prevent link creation failure from causing kobj reference count imbalance
  device property: Add a note to the fwnode.h
  drivers/base: Add myself as auxiliary bus reviewer
  drivers/base: Extend documentation with preferred way to use auxbus
  driver core: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in dev_uevent()
  driver core: introduce device_set_driver() helper
  Revert "drivers: core: synchronize really_probe() and dev_uevent()"
  MAINTAINERS: update the location of the driver-core git tree
  rust: firmware: Use `ffi::c_char` type in `FwFunc`
