So far Devres uses an inner memory allocation and reference count, i.e.
an inner Arc, in order to ensure that the devres callback can't run into
a use-after-free in case where the Devres object is dropped while the
devres callback runs concurrently.
Instead, use a completion in order to avoid a potential UAF: In
Devres::drop(), if we detect that we can't remove the devres action
anymore, we wait for the completion that is completed from the devres
callback. If, in turn, we were able to successfully remove the devres
action, we can just go ahead.
This, again, allows us to get rid of the internal Arc, and instead let
Devres consume an `impl PinInit<T, E>` in order to return an
`impl PinInit<Devres<T>, E>`, which enables us to get away with less
memory allocations.
Additionally, having the resulting explicit synchronization in
Devres::drop() prevents potential subtle undesired side effects of the
devres callback dropping the final Arc reference asynchronously within
the devres callback.

For the I/O operations executed from the probe() method, take advantage
of Devres::access(), avoiding the atomic check and RCU read lock required
otherwise entirely.

This method limits the scope of the revocable guard and is considered
safer to use for most cases, so let's showcase it here.

Here is the big set of driver core updates for 6.15-rc1. Lots of stuff
happened this development cycle, including:
- kernfs scaling changes to make it even faster thanks to rcu
- bin_attribute constify work in many subsystems
- faux bus minor tweaks for the rust bindings
- rust binding updates for driver core, pci, and platform busses,
making more functionaliy available to rust drivers. These are all
due to people actually trying to use the bindings that were in 6.14.
- make Rafael and Danilo full co-maintainers of the driver core
codebase
- other minor fixes and updates.
This has been in linux-next for a while now, with the only reported
issue being some merge conflicts with the rust tree. Depending on which
tree you pull first, you will have conflicts in one of them. The merge
resolution has been in linux-next as an example of what to do, or can be

As by now, pci::Device is implemented as:
#[derive(Clone)]
pub struct Device(ARef<device::Device>);
This may be convenient, but has the implication that drivers can call
device methods that require a mutable reference concurrently at any
point of time.
Instead define pci::Device as
pub struct Device<Ctx: DeviceContext = Normal>(
Opaque<bindings::pci_dev>,
PhantomData<Ctx>,
);
and manually implement the AlwaysRefCounted trait.
With this we can implement methods that should only be called from
bus callbacks (such as probe()) for pci::Device<Core>. Consequently, we
make this type accessible in bus callbacks only.
Arbitrary references taken by the driver are still of type
ARef<pci::Device> and hence don't provide access to methods that are
reserved for bus callbacks.

In the `module!` macro, the `author` field is currently of type `String`.
Since modules can have multiple authors, this limitation prevents
specifying more than one.
Add an `authors` field as `Option<Vec<String>>` to allow creating
modules with multiple authors, and change the documentation and all
current users to use it. Eventually, the single `author` field may
be removed.
[ The `modinfo` key needs to still be `author`; otherwise, tooling
may not work properly, e.g.:
$ modinfo --author samples/rust/rust_print.ko
Rust for Linux Contributors
I have also kept the original `author` field (undocumented), so
that we can drop it more easily in a kernel cycle or two.

Rename the I/O accessors provided by `Io` to encode the type as
number instead of letter. This is in preparation for Port I/O support
to use a trait for generic accessors.
Add a `c_fn` argument to the accessor generation macro to translate
between rust and C names.

This commit adds a sample Rust PCI driver for QEMU's "pci-testdev"
device. To enable this device QEMU has to be called with
`-device pci-testdev`.
The same driver shows how to use the PCI device / driver abstractions,
as well as how to request and map PCI BARs, including a short sequence of
MMIO operations.
