   - A new tool to detect when documents have been moved and generate
     HTML redirects; this can be used on kernel.org (or any other site
     hosting the rendered docs) to avoid breaking links.

   - Automated processing of the YAML files describing the netlink

ee916dccd4 Unbreak 'make tools/*' for user-space targets
This pattern isn't very documented, and apparently not used much outside
of 'make tools/help', but it has existed for over a decade (since commit
ea01fa9f63: "tools: Connect to the kernel build system").

However, it doesn't work very well for most cases, particularly the
useful "tools/all" target, because it overrides the LDFLAGS value with
an empty one.

And once overridden, 'make' will then not honor the tooling makefiles
trying to change it - which then makes any LDFLAGS use in the tooling
directory break, typically causing odd link errors.

Remove that LDFLAGS override, since it seems to be entirely historical.
The core kernel makefiles no longer modify LDFLAGS as part of the build,
and use kernel-specific link flags instead (eg 'KBUILD_LDFLAGS' and
friends).

This allows more of the 'make tools/*' cases to work.  I say 'more',
because some of the tooling build rules make various other assumptions
or have other issues, so it's still a bit hit-or-miss.  But those issues
tend to show up with the 'make -C tools xyz' pattern too, so now it's no
longer an issue of this particular 'tools/*' build rule being special.

23ef9d4397 kcfi: Rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI
The kernel's CFI implementation uses the KCFI ABI specifically, and is
not strictly tied to a particular compiler. In preparation for GCC
supporting KCFI, rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI (along with
associated options).

Use new "transitional" Kconfig option for old CONFIG_CFI_CLANG that will
enable CONFIG_CFI during olddefconfig.

73d210e9fa kheaders: make it possible to override TAR
Commit 86cdd2fdc4 ("kheaders: make headers archive reproducible")
introduced a number of options specific to GNU tar to the `tar`
invocation in `gen_kheaders.sh` script. This causes the script to fail
to work on systems where `tar` is not GNU tar. This can occur e.g.
on recent Gentoo Linux installations that support using bsdtar from
libarchive instead.

Add a `TAR` make variable to make it possible to override the tar
executable used, e.g. by specifying:

  make TAR=gtar

936599ca51 kbuild: userprogs: use correct linker when mixing clang and GNU ld
The userprogs infrastructure does not expect clang being used with GNU ld
and in that case uses /usr/bin/ld for linking, not the configured $(LD).
This fallback is problematic as it will break when cross-compiling.
Mixing clang and GNU ld is used for example when building for SPARC64,
as ld.lld is not sufficient; see Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst.

Relax the check around --ld-path so it gets used for all linkers.

     which are quite powerful, into restricted variants that are less
     powerful and thus should help to avoid mistakes

   - Remove the 'author' key now that most instances were moved to the
     plural one in the previous cycle

  'kernel' crate:

   - New 'bug' module: add 'warn_on!' macro which reuses the existing
     'BUG'/'WARN' infrastructure, i.e. it respects the usual sysctls and
     kernel parameters:

         warn_on!(value == 42);

     To avoid duplicating the assembly code, the same strategy is
     followed as for the static branch code in order to share the
     assembly between both C and Rust

     This required a few rearrangements on C arch headers -- the
     existing C macros should still generate the same outputs, thus no
     functional change expected there

   - 'workqueue' module: add delayed work items, including a
     'DelayedWork' struct, a 'impl_has_delayed_work!' macro and an
     'enqueue_delayed' method, e.g.:

         /// Enqueue the struct for execution on the system workqueue,
         /// where its value will be printed 42 jiffies later.
         fn print_later(value: Arc<MyStruct>) {
             let _ = workqueue::system().enqueue_delayed(value, 42);
         }

   - New 'bits' module: add support for 'bit' and 'genmask' functions,
     with runtime- and compile-time variants, e.g.:

         static_assert!(0b00010000 == bit_u8(4));
         static_assert!(0b00011110 == genmask_u8(1..=4));

         assert!(checked_bit_u32(u32::BITS).is_none());

   - 'uaccess' module: add 'UserSliceReader::strcpy_into_buf', which
     reads NUL-terminated strings from userspace into a '&CStr'

     Introduce 'UserPtr' newtype, similar in purpose to '__user' in C,
     to minimize mistakes handling userspace pointers, including mixing
     them up with integers and leaking them via the 'Debug' trait. Add
     it to the prelude, too

   - Start preparations for the replacement of our custom 'CStr' type
     with the analogous type in the 'core' standard library. This will
     take place across several cycles to make it easier. For this one,
     it includes a new 'fmt' module, using upstream method names and
     some other cleanups

     Replace 'fmt!' with a re-export, which helps Clippy lint properly,
     and clean up the found 'uninlined-format-args' instances

   - 'dma' module:

      - Clarify wording and be consistent in 'coherent' nomenclature

      - Convert the 'read!()' and 'write!()' macros to return a 'Result'

      - Add 'as_slice()', 'write()' methods in 'CoherentAllocation'

      - Expose 'count()' and 'size()' in 'CoherentAllocation' and add
        the corresponding type invariants

      - Implement 'CoherentAllocation::dma_handle_with_offset()'

   - 'time' module:

      - Make 'Instant' generic over clock source. This allows the
        compiler to assert that arithmetic expressions involving the
        'Instant' use 'Instants' based on the same clock source

      - Make 'HrTimer' generic over the timer mode. 'HrTimer' timers
        take a 'Duration' or an 'Instant' when setting the expiry time,
        depending on the timer mode. With this change, the compiler can
        check the type matches the timer mode

      - Add an abstraction for 'fsleep'. 'fsleep' is a flexible sleep
        function that will select an appropriate sleep method depending
        on the requested sleep time

      - Avoid 64-bit divisions on 32-bit hardware when calculating
        timestamps

      - Seal the 'HrTimerMode' trait. This prevents users of the
        'HrTimerMode' from implementing the trait on their own types

      - Pass the correct timer mode ID to 'hrtimer_start_range_ns()'

   - 'list' module: remove 'OFFSET' constants, allowing to remove
     pointer arithmetic; now 'impl_list_item!' invokes
     'impl_has_list_links!' or 'impl_has_list_links_self_ptr!'. Other
     simplifications too

   - 'types' module: remove 'ForeignOwnable::PointedTo' in favor of a
     constant, which avoids exposing the type of the opaque pointer, and
     require 'into_foreign' to return non-null

     Remove the 'Either<L, R>' type as well. It is unused, and we want
     to encourage the use of custom enums for concrete use cases

   - 'sync' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Arc' types
     to allow them to be used in generic APIs

   - 'alloc' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Box<T, A>';
     and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec<T, A>'

   - 'Opaque' type: add 'cast_from' method to perform a restricted cast
     that cannot change the inner type and use it in callers of
     'container_of!'. Rename 'raw_get' to 'cast_into' to match it

   - 'rbtree' module: add 'is_empty' method

   - 'sync' module: new 'aref' submodule to hold 'AlwaysRefCounted' and
     'ARef', which are moved from the too general 'types' module which
     we want to reduce or eventually remove. Also fix a safety comment
     in 'static_lock_class'

  'pin-init' crate:

   - Add 'impl<T, E> [Pin]Init<T, E> for Result<T, E>', so results are
     now (pin-)initializers

   - Add 'Zeroable::init_zeroed()' that delegates to 'init_zeroed()'

   - New 'zeroed()', a safe version of 'mem::zeroed()' and also provide
     it via 'Zeroable::zeroed()'

   - Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option<&T>', 'Option<&mut T>' and for
     'Option<[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -> ret>' for
     '"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments

   - Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl<T, E>
     [Pin]Init<T, E> for T' to 'impl<T> [Pin]Init<T> for T'

   - Renamed 'zeroed()' to 'init_zeroed()'

   - Upstream dev news: improve CI more to deny warnings, use
     '--all-targets'. Check the synchronization status of the two
     '-next' branches in upstream and the kernel

While this doesn't eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such

5e30550558 rust: enable clippy::as_underscore lint
In Rust 1.63.0, Clippy introduced the `as_underscore` lint [1]:

> The conversion might include lossy conversion or a dangerous cast that
> might go undetected due to the type being inferred.
>
> The lint is allowed by default as using `_` is less wordy than always
> specifying the type.

Always specifying the type is especially helpful in function call
contexts where the inferred type may change at a distance. Specifying
the type also allows Clippy to spot more cases of `useless_conversion`.

The primary downside is the need to specify the type in trivial getters.
There are 4 such functions: 3 have become slightly less ergonomic, 1 was
revealed to be a `useless_conversion`.

While this doesn't eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such
conversions easier to scrutinize.  It also has the slight benefit of
removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed. Thus apply the
changes and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.

> Since `as_ptr` takes a `&self`, the pointer won’t have write

There is only one affected callsite, and the change amounts to replacing
`as _` with `.cast_mut().cast()`. This doesn't change the semantics, but
is more descriptive of what's going on.

Apply this change and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.

There are only 3 affected sites:

- `&self as *const Self as *mut Self` becomes
  `core::ptr::from_ref(self).cast_mut()`.

fcad9bbf9e rust: enable clippy::ptr_as_ptr lint

> Though `as` casts between raw pointers are not terrible,
> `pointer::cast` is safer because it cannot accidentally change the
> pointer's mutability, nor cast the pointer to other types like `usize`.

There are a few classes of changes required:
- Modules generated by bindgen are marked
  `#[allow(clippy::ptr_as_ptr)]`.
- Inferred casts (` as _`) are replaced with `.cast()`.
- Ascribed casts (` as *... T`) are replaced with `.cast::<T>()`.
- Multistep casts from references (` as *const _ as *const T`) are
  replaced with `core::ptr::from_ref(&x).cast()` with or without `::<T>`
  according to the previous rules. The `core::ptr::from_ref` call is
  required because `(x as *const _).cast::<T>()` results in inference
  failure.
- Native literal C strings are replaced with `c_str!().as_char_ptr()`.
- `*mut *mut T as _` is replaced with `let *mut *const T = (*mut *mut
  T)`.cast();` since pointer to pointer can be confusing.

Apply these changes and enable the lint -- no functional change
intended.
