Linus Torvalds c2a96b7f18 Driver core changes for 6.11-rc1
Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.
 
 Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
 which required lots of files to be touched.  Highlights of the changes
 in here are:
   - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases to
     get here, finally!)
   - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
     interactions.  It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver
     in rust" type of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the
     phy rust drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on
     which others can start their work.  There is still a long way to go
     here before we have a multitude of rust drivers being added, but
     it's a great first step.
   - driver core const api changes.  This reached across all bus types,
     and there are some fix-ups for some not-common bus types that
     linux-next and 0-day testing shook out.  This work is being done to
     help make the rust bindings more safe, as well as the C code, moving
     toward the end-goal of allowing us to put driver structures into
     read-only memory.  We aren't there yet, but are getting closer.
   - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection
   - arch_topology minor changes
   - other minor driver core cleanups
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
 reported problems.
