Commit 47ac2a4b5cd8 ("rust: kvec: implement shrink_to for KVVec")
introduced a call to bindings::is_vmalloc_addr(). However, this
fails to compile on architectures where CONFIG_MMU is disabled,
resulting in the following build error:

    error[E0425]: cannot find function `is_vmalloc_addr` in crate `bindings`
       --&gt; rust/kernel/alloc/kvec.rs:781:32
        |
    781 |         if !unsafe { bindings::is_vmalloc_addr(self.ptr.as_ptr().cast()) } {
        |                                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ not found in `bindings`

When CONFIG_MMU is not set, is_vmalloc_addr() is defined as a
static inline function in &lt;linux/mm.h&gt; that unconditionally
returns false. Because bindgen skips static inline functions
when generating bindings, the symbol is completely missing from
the Rust bindings crate.

Fix this by providing a C helper wrapper, rust_helper_is_vmalloc_addr(),
in rust/helpers/vmalloc.c. This ensures the function is reliably
exposed to Rust regardless of the MMU configuration. On NOMMU builds,
this allows KVVec::shrink_to() to successfully compile and correctly
route all allocations through the kmalloc realloc path.

If pinned initialization of drm::Device::Data fails, it calls
drm::Device::release via drm_dev_put. This materializes a reference to
&amp;drm::Device, but it's not fully constructed yet, because initializing
`data` failed. It should not be dropped either. Instead, if pinned
initialization fails, make sure drm::Device::release isn't called.

<id>68bf102226cf2199dc609b67c1e847cad4de4b57</id>
<content type='text'>
When a field has been initialized, `init!`/`pin_init!` create a reference
or pinned reference to the field so it can be accessed later during the
initialization of other fields. However, the reference it created is
incorrectly `&amp;'static` rather than just the scope of the initializer.

This means that you can do

    init!(Foo {
        a: 1,
        _: {
            let b: &amp;'static u32 = a;
        }
    })

which is unsound.

This is caused by `&amp;mut (*#slot).#ident`, which actually allows arbitrary
lifetime, so this is effectively `'static`. Somewhat ironically, the safety
justification of creating the accessor is.. "SAFETY: TODO".

Fix it by adding `let_binding` method on `DropGuard` to shorten lifetime.
This results in exactly what we want for these accessors. The safety and
invariant comments of `DropGuard` have been reworked; instead of reasoning
about what caller can do with the guard, express it in a way that the
ownership is transferred to the guard and `forget` takes it back, so the
unsafe operations within the `DropGuard` can be more easily justified.

Instead of having the reference creation serving dual-purpose as both for
let bindings and alignment check, detangle them so that the alignment check
is done explicitly in `make_field_check`. This is more robust against
refactors that may change the way let bindings are created.

32-bit UML builds can be configured either by setting CONFIG_64BIT=n or
with SUBARCH=i386. Both work with Rust-for-Linux when clang is the
compiler, but when SUBARCH=i386, we don't set a bindgen target correctly if
gcc is the compiler.

Add the appropriate bindgen target configuration for i386, as is done in
Makefile.clang.

[ For reference, the errors look like:

        BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_generated.rs

   - the usual large set of new IIO drivers and updates for that

   - lots of comedi driver updates and bugfixes

   - coresight driver updates

   - interconnect driver updates and additions

Pull char / misc / IIO / and others driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the char/misc/iio and other smaller driver subsystem updates
  for 7.1-rc1. Lots of stuff in here, all tiny, but relevant for the
  different drivers they touch. Major points in here is:

   - the usual large set of new IIO drivers and updates for that
     subsystem (the large majority of this diffstat)

   - lots of comedi driver updates and bugfixes

   - coresight driver updates

   - interconnect driver updates and additions

   - mei driver updates

   - binder (both rust and C versions) updates and fixes

   - lots of other smaller driver subsystem updates and additions

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