Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda "More additions to the Rust core. Importantly, this adds the pin-init API, which will be used by other abstractions, such as the synchronization ones added here too: - pin-init API: a solution for the safe pinned initialization problem. This allows to reduce the need for 'unsafe' code in the kernel when dealing with data structures that require a stable address. Commit 90e53c5e ("rust: add pin-init API core") contains a nice introduction -- here is an example of how it looks like: #[pin_data] struct Example { #[pin] value: Mutex<u32>, #[pin] value_changed: CondVar, } impl Example { fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> { pin_init!(Self { value <- new_mutex!(0), value_changed <- new_condvar!(), }) } ...
