Pull Rust fixes from Miguel Ojeda:

 - Soundness: make internal functions generated by the 'module!' macro
   inaccessible, do not implement 'Zeroable' for 'Infallible' and
   require 'Send' for the 'Module' trait.

 - Build: avoid errors with "empty" files and workaround 'rustdoc' ICE.

 - Kconfig: depend on '!CFI_CLANG' and avoid selecting 'CONSTRUCTORS'.

 - Code docs: remove non-existing key from 'module!' macro example.

 - Docs: trivial rendering fix in arch table.

If one attempts to build an essentially empty file somewhere in the
kernel tree, it leads to a build error because the compiler does not
recognize the `new_uninit` unstable feature:

    error[E0635]: unknown feature `new_uninit`
     --&gt; &lt;crate attribute&gt;:1:9
      |
    1 | feature(new_uninit)
      |         ^^^^^^^^^^

The reason is that we pass `-Zcrate-attr='feature(new_uninit)'` (together
with `-Zallow-features=new_uninit`) to let non-`rust/` code use that
unstable feature.

However, the compiler only recognizes the feature if the `alloc` crate
is resolved (the feature is an `alloc` one). `--extern alloc`, which we
pass, is not enough to resolve the crate.

Introducing a reference like `use alloc;` or `extern crate alloc;`
solves the issue, thus this is not seen in normal files. For instance,
`use`ing the `kernel` prelude introduces such a reference, since `alloc`
is used inside.

While normal use of the build system is not impacted by this, it can still
be fairly confusing for kernel developers [1], thus use the unstable
`force` option of `--extern` [2] (added in Rust 1.71 [3]) to force the
compiler to resolve `alloc`.

This new unstable feature is only needed meanwhile we use the other
unstable feature, since then we will not need `-Zcrate-attr`.

The .head.text section carries the startup code that runs with the MMU
off or with a translation of memory that deviates from the ordinary one.
So avoid instrumentation with the stackleak plugin, which already avoids
.init.text and .noinstr.text entirely.

When KCSAN and CONSTRUCTORS are enabled, one can trigger the

  "Unpatched return thunk in use. This should not happen!"

catch-all warning.

Usually, when objtool runs on the .o objects, it does generate a section
.return_sites which contains all offsets in the objects to the return
thunks of the functions present there. Those return thunks then get
patched at runtime by the alternatives.

KCSAN and CONSTRUCTORS add this to the object file's .text.startup
section:

  -------------------
  Disassembly of section .text.startup:

  ...

which, if it is built as a module goes through the intermediary stage of
creating a &lt;module&gt;.mod.c file which, when translated, receives a second

  -------------------

in the .ko file.

Objtool has run already so that second constructor's return thunk cannot
be added to the .return_sites section and thus the return thunk remains
unpatched and the warning rightfully fires.

Drop KCSAN flags from the mod.c generation stage as those constructors
do not contain data races one would be interested about.

in the .ko file.

Objtool has run already so that second constructor's return thunk cannot
be added to the .return_sites section and thus the return thunk remains
unpatched and the warning rightfully fires.

Drop KCSAN flags from the mod.c generation stage as those constructors
do not contain data races one would be interested about.

<title>kbuild: make -Woverride-init warnings more consistent</title>

<id>c40845e3195d074b34f8f8e400e28c9403a06588</id>
<content type='text'>
The -Woverride-init warn about code that may be intentional or not,
but the inintentional ones tend to be real bugs, so there is a bit of
disagreement on whether this warning option should be enabled by default
and we have multiple settings in scripts/Makefile.extrawarn as well as
individual subsystems.

Older versions of clang only supported -Wno-initializer-overrides with
the same meaning as gcc's -Woverride-init, though all supported versions
now work with both. Because of this difference, an earlier cleanup of
mine accidentally turned the clang warning off for W=1 builds and only
left it on for W=2, while it's still enabled for gcc with W=1.

There is also one driver that only turns the warning off for newer
versions of gcc but not other compilers, and some but not all the
Makefiles still use a cc-disable-warning conditional that is no
longer needed with supported compilers here.

Address all of the above by removing the special cases for clang
and always turning the warning off unconditionally where it got
in the way, using the syntax that is supported by both compilers.

<title>docs: Fix bitfield handling in kernel-doc</title>

kernel-doc doesn't handle bitfields that are specified with symbolic
name, e.g. u32 cs_index_mask : SPI_CS_CNT_MAX

This results in the following warnings when running `make htmldocs`:

include/linux/spi/spi.h:246: warning: Function parameter or struct member 'cs_index_mask:SPI_CS_CNT_MAX' not described in 'spi_device'
include/linux/spi/spi.h:246: warning: Excess struct member 'cs_index_mask' description in 'spi_device'

Update the regexp for bitfields to accept all word chars, not just
digits.
