Miguel Ojeda 1d2d684de1 rust: init: use explicit ABI to clean warning in future compilers
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2114239

commit c21bdb3d8a850afdfa4afe77eea39ae9533629b0 upstream.

Starting with Rust 1.86.0 (currently in nightly, to be released on
2025-04-03), the `missing_abi` lint is warn-by-default [1]:

    error: extern declarations without an explicit ABI are deprecated
        --> rust/doctests_kernel_generated.rs:3158:1
         |
    3158 | extern {
         | ^^^^^^ help: explicitly specify the C ABI: `extern "C"`
         |
         = note: `-D missing-abi` implied by `-D warnings`
         = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(missing_abi)]`

Thus clean it up.

Yutaro Ohno afa0819bb4 rust: kernel: fix THIS_MODULE header path in ThisModule doc comment
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2101915

[ Upstream commit 8b55dc8610acf816a66373be53ca6e3bbe2d313a ]

The doc comment for `ThisModule` incorrectly states the C header file
for `THIS_MODULE` as `include/linux/export.h`, while the correct path is
`include/linux/init.h`. This is because `THIS_MODULE` was moved in
commit 5b20755b77 ("init: move THIS_MODULE from <linux/export.h> to
<linux/init.h>").

Update the doc comment for `ThisModule` to reflect the correct header
file path for `THIS_MODULE`.

Alice Ryhl d5b31f3a1c rust: sync: require T: Sync for LockedBy::access
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2089884

commit a8ee30f45d5d57467ddb7877ed6914d0eba0af7f upstream.

The `LockedBy::access` method only requires a shared reference to the
owner, so if we have shared access to the `LockedBy` from several
threads at once, then two threads could call `access` in parallel and
both obtain a shared reference to the inner value. Thus, require that
`T: Sync` when calling the `access` method.

An alternative is to require `T: Sync` in the `impl Sync for LockedBy`.
This patch does not choose that approach as it gives up the ability to
use `LockedBy` with `!Sync` types, which is okay as long as you only use
`access_mut`.

Boqun Feng d16ff77878 rust: macros: provide correct provenance when constructing THIS_MODULE
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2085849

commit a5a3c952e82c1ada12bf8c55b73af26f1a454bd2 upstream.

Currently while defining `THIS_MODULE` symbol in `module!()`, the
pointer used to construct `ThisModule` is derived from an immutable
reference of `__this_module`, which means the pointer doesn't have
the provenance for writing, and that means any write to that pointer
is UB regardless of data races or not. However, the usage of
`THIS_MODULE` includes passing this pointer to functions that may write
to it (probably in unsafe code), and this will create soundness issues.

One way to fix this is using `addr_of_mut!()` but that requires the
unstable feature "const_mut_refs". So instead of `addr_of_mut()!`,
an extern static `Opaque` is used here: since `Opaque<T>` is transparent
to `T`, an extern static `Opaque` will just wrap the C symbol (defined
in a C compile unit) in an `Opaque`, which provides a pointer with
writable provenance via `Opaque::get()`. This fix the potential UBs
because of pointer provenance unmatched.

Boqun Feng c37e3737a4 rust: types: Make Opaque::get const
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2085849

commit be2ca1e03965ffb214b6cbda0ffd84daeeb5f214 upstream.

To support a potential usage:

    static foo: Opaque<Foo> = ..; // Or defined in an extern block.

    ...

    fn bar() {
        let ptr = foo.get();
    }

`Opaque::get` need to be `const`, otherwise compiler will complain
because calls on statics are limited to const functions.

Also `Opaque::get` should be naturally `const` since it's a composition
of two `const` functions: `UnsafeCell::get` and `ptr::cast`.

Benno Lossin 598ab412b8 rust: macros: fix soundness issue in module! macro
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2070349

[ Upstream commit 7044dcff8301b29269016ebd17df27c4736140d2 ]

The `module!` macro creates glue code that are called by C to initialize
the Rust modules using the `Module::init` function. Part of this glue
code are the local functions `__init` and `__exit` that are used to
initialize/destroy the Rust module.

These functions are safe and also visible to the Rust mod in which the
`module!` macro is invoked. This means that they can be called by other
safe Rust code. But since they contain `unsafe` blocks that rely on only
being called at the right time, this is a soundness issue.

Wrap these generated functions inside of two private modules, this
guarantees that the public functions cannot be called from the outside.
Make the safe functions `unsafe` and add SAFETY comments.

Thomas Bertschinger 0ab0b479b1 rust: module: place generated init_module() function in .init.text
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2070349

[ Upstream commit 1b6170ff7a203a5e8354f19b7839fe8b897a9c0d ]

Currently Rust kernel modules have their init code placed in the `.text`
section of the .ko file. I don't think this causes any real problems
for Rust modules as long as all code called during initialization lives
in `.text`.

However, if a Rust `init_module()` function (that lives in `.text`)
calls a function marked with `__init` (in C) or
`#[link_section = ".init.text"]` (in Rust), then a warning is
generated by modpost because that function lives in `.init.text`.
For example:

WARNING: modpost: fs/bcachefs/bcachefs: section mismatch in reference: init_module+0x6 (section: .text) -> _RNvXCsj7d3tFpT5JS_15bcachefs_moduleNtB2_8BcachefsNtCsjDtqRIL3JAG_6kernel6Module4init (section: .init.text)

I ran into this while experimenting with converting the bcachefs kernel
module from C to Rust. The module's `init()`, written in Rust, calls C
functions like `bch2_vfs_init()` which are placed in `.init.text`.

This patch places the macro-generated `init_module()` Rust function in
the `.init.text` section. It also marks `init_module()` as unsafe--now
it may not be called after module initialization completes because it
may be freed already.

Note that this is not enough on its own to actually get all the module
initialization code in that section. The module author must still add
the `#[link_section = ".init.text"]` attribute to the Rust `init()` in
the `impl kernel::Module` block in order to then call `__init`
functions. However, this patch enables module authors do so, when
previously it would not be possible (without warnings).

Miguel Ojeda 747233bb6f kbuild: rust: remove unneeded @rustc_cfg to avoid ICE
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2070337

commit 50cfe93b01475ba36878b65d35d812e1bb48ac71 upstream.

When KUnit tests are enabled, under very big kernel configurations
(e.g. `allyesconfig`), we can trigger a `rustdoc` ICE [1]:

      RUSTDOC TK rust/kernel/lib.rs
    error: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.

The reason is that this build step has a duplicated `@rustc_cfg` argument,
which contains the kernel configuration, and thus a lot of arguments. The
factor 2 happens to be enough to reach the ICE.

Thus remove the unneeded `@rustc_cfg`. By doing so, we clean up the
command and workaround the ICE.

The ICE has been fixed in the upcoming Rust 1.79 [2].

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2070337

commit 49ceae68a0df9a92617a61e9ce8a0efcf6419585 upstream.

In Rust, producing an invalid value of any type is immediate undefined
behavior (UB); this includes via zeroing memory.  Therefore, since an
uninhabited type has no valid values, producing any values at all for it is
UB.

The Rust standard library type `core::convert::Infallible` is uninhabited,
by virtue of having been declared as an enum with no cases, which always
produces uninhabited types in Rust.

The current kernel code allows this UB to be triggered, for example by code
like `Box::<core::convert::Infallible>::init(kernel::init::zeroed())`.

Thus, remove the implementation of `Zeroable` for `Infallible`, thereby
avoiding the unsoundness (potential for future UB).

Miguel Ojeda 58976f064a rust: upgrade to Rust 1.75.0
This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.74.1 to 1.75.0
(i.e. the latest) [1].

See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").

# Unstable features

The `const_maybe_uninit_zeroed` unstable feature [3] was stabilized in
Rust 1.75.0, which we were using in the PHYLIB abstractions.

The only unstable features allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate
are still `new_uninit,offset_of`, though other code to be upstreamed
may increase the list.

Please see [4] for details.

# Other improvements

Rust 1.75.0 stabilized `pointer_byte_offsets` [5] which we could
potentially use as an alternative for `ptr_metadata` in the future.

# Required changes

For this upgrade, no changes were required (i.e. on our side).

# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing

The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.

There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.

Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.

Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.

To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:

    # Get the difference with respect to the old version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

    # Apply this patch.
    git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch

    # Get the difference with respect to the new version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first
approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second
approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

Miguel Ojeda bc2e7d5c29 rust: support srctree-relative links
Some of our links use relative paths in order to point to files in the
source tree, e.g.:

    //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](../../../../include/linux/printk.h)
    /// [`struct mutex`]: ../../../../include/linux/mutex.h

These are problematic because they are hard to maintain and do not support
`O=` builds.

Instead, provide support for `srctree`-relative links, e.g.:

    //! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](srctree/include/linux/printk.h)
    /// [`struct mutex`]: srctree/include/linux/mutex.h

The links are fixed after `rustdoc` generation to be based on the absolute
path to the source tree.

Essentially, this is the automatic version of Tomonori's fix [1],
suggested by Gary [2].

Boqun Feng 0a7f5ba73e rust: sync: Makes CondVar::wait() an uninterruptible wait
Currently, `CondVar::wait()` is an interruptible wait, and this is
different than `wait_event()` in include/linux/wait.h (which is an
uninterruptible wait). To avoid confusion between different APIs on the
interruptible/uninterruptible, make `CondVar::wait()` an uninterruptible
wait same as `wait_event()`, also rename the old `wait()` to
`CondVar::wait_interruptible()`.

Miguel Ojeda 80fe9e5151 rust: upgrade to Rust 1.74.1
This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.73.0 to 1.74.1
(i.e. the latest) [1].

See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").

# Unstable features

No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized.

Therefore, the only unstable features allowed to be used outside the
`kernel` crate are still `new_uninit,offset_of`, though other code to
be upstreamed may increase the list (e.g. `offset_of` was added recently).

Please see [3] for details.

# Other improvements

Rust 1.74.0 allows to use `#[repr(Rust)]` explicitly [4], which can be
useful to be explicit about particular cases that would normally use
e.g. the C representation, such as silencing lints like the upcoming
additions we requested [5] to the `no_mangle_with_rust_abi` Clippy lint
(which in turn triggered the `#[repr(Rust)]` addition).

Rust 1.74.0 includes a fix for one of the false negative cases we reported
in Clippy's `disallowed_macros` lint [6] that we would like to use in
the future.

Rust 1.74.1 fixes an ICE that the Apple AGX GPU driver was hitting [7].

# Required changes

For this upgrade, no changes were required (i.e. on our side).

# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing

The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.

There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.

Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.

Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.

To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:

    # Get the difference with respect to the old version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)

FUJITA Tomonori f20fd5449a rust: core abstractions for network PHY drivers
This patch adds abstractions to implement network PHY drivers; the
driver registration and bindings for some of callback functions in
struct phy_driver and many genphy_ functions.

This feature is enabled with CONFIG_RUST_PHYLIB_ABSTRACTIONS=y.

This patch enables unstable const_maybe_uninit_zeroed feature for
kernel crate to enable unsafe code to handle a constant value with
uninitialized data. With the feature, the abstractions can initialize
a phy_driver structure with zero easily; instead of initializing all
the members by hand. It's supposed to be stable in the not so distant
future.

Matthew Maurer 71479eee9d rust: Suppress searching builtin sysroot
By default, if Rust is passed `--target=foo` rather than a target.json
file, it will infer a default sysroot if that component is installed. As
the proposed aarch64 support [1] uses `aarch64-unknown-none` rather than a
target.json file, this is needed [2] to prevent rustc from being confused
between the custom kernel sysroot and the pre-installed one.

[ Miguel: Applied Boqun's extra case (for `rusttest`) and reworded to add
  links to the arm64 patch series discussion. In addition, fixed the
  `rustdoc` target too (which requires a conditional since `cmd_rustdoc`
  is also used for host crates like `macros`). ]

Benno Lossin 88c2e1169f rust: macros: improve #[vtable] documentation
Traits marked with `#[vtable]` need to provide default implementations
for optional functions. The C side represents these with `NULL` in the
vtable, so the default functions are never actually called. We do not
want to replicate the default behavior from C in Rust, because that is
not maintainable. Therefore we should use `build_error` in those default
implementations. The error message for that is provided at
`kernel::error::VTABLE_DEFAULT_ERROR`.

Gary Guo 743766565d rust: bindings: rename const binding using sed
Currently, for `const`s that bindgen doesn't recognise, we define a
helper constant with

    const <TYPE> BINDINGS_<NAME> = <NAME>;

in `bindings_helper.h` and then we put

    pub const <NAME>: <TYPE> = BINDINGS_<NAME>;

in `bindings/lib.rs`. This is fine since we currently only have 3
constants that are defined this way, but is going to be more annoying
when more constants are added since every new constant needs to be
defined in two places.

This patch changes the way we define constant helpers to

    const <TYPE> RUST_CONST_HELPER_<NAME> = <NAME>;

and then use `sed` to postprocess Rust code generated by bindgen to
remove the distinct prefix, so users of the `bindings` crate can refer
to the name directly.

Miguel Ojeda cfd96726e6 rust: docs: fix logo replacement
The static files placement by `rustdoc` changed in Rust 1.67.0 [1],
but the custom code we have to replace the logo in the generated
HTML files did not get updated.

Thus update it to have the Linux logo again in the output.

Hopefully `rustdoc` will eventually support a custom logo from
a local file [2], so that we do not need to maintain this hack
on our side.

Matthew Maurer a7135d1075 rust: Use grep -Ev rather than relying on GNU grep
While GNU grep supports '\|' when in basic regular expression mode, not
all grep implementations do (notably toybox grep, used to build the
Android kernel, does not). Switching to grep -Ev enables extended
regular expressions which includes support for the '|' operator.

Miguel Ojeda e08ff622c9 rust: upgrade to Rust 1.73.0
This is the next upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.72.1 to 1.73.0
(i.e. the latest) [1].

See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").

# Unstable features

No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized.

Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside
the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be
upstreamed may increase the list.

Please see [3] for details.

# Required changes

For the upgrade, the following changes are required:

  - Allow `internal_features` for `feature(compiler_builtins)` since
    now Rust warns about using internal compiler and standard library
    features (similar to how it also warns about incomplete ones) [4].

  - A cleanup for a documentation link thanks to a new `rustdoc` lint.
    See previous commits for details.

  - A need to make an intra-doc link to a macro explicit, due to a
    change in behavior in `rustdoc`. See previous commits for details.

# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing

The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.

There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.

Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.

Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.

To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:

    # Get the difference with respect to the old version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

    # Apply this patch.
    git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch

    # Get the difference with respect to the new version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first
approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second
approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

Matthew Maurer 80bac83a73 rust: Respect HOSTCC when linking for host
Currently, rustc defaults to invoking `cc`, even if `HOSTCC` is defined,
resulting in build failures in hermetic environments where `cc` does not
exist. This includes both hostprogs and proc-macros.

Since we are setting the linker to `HOSTCC`, we set the linker flavor to
`gcc` explicitly. The linker-flavor selects both which linker to search
for if the linker is unset, and which kind of linker flags to pass.
Without this flag, `rustc` would attempt to determine which flags to
pass based on the name of the binary passed as `HOSTCC`. `gcc` is the
name of the linker-flavor used by `rustc` for all C compilers, including
both `gcc` and `clang`.

Andrea Righi 344b6c0a75 rust: fix bindgen build error with fstrict-flex-arrays
Commit df8fc4e934 ("kbuild: Enable -fstrict-flex-arrays=3") enabled
'-fstrict-flex-arrays=3' globally, but bindgen does not recognized this
compiler option, triggering the following build error:

 error: unknown argument: '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3', err: true

[ Miguel: Commit df8fc4e934 ("kbuild: Enable -fstrict-flex-arrays=3")
  did it so only conditionally (i.e. only if the C compiler supports
  it). This explains what Andrea was seeing: he was  compiling with a
  modern enough GCC, which enables the option, but with an old enough
  Clang. Andrea confirmed this was the case: he was using Clang 14 with
  GCC 13; and that Clang 15 worked for him.

  While it is possible to construct code (see mailing list for an
  example I came up with) where this could break, it is fairly
  contrived, and anyway GCC-built kernels with Rust enabled should
  only be used for experimentation until we get support for
  `rustc_codegen_gcc` and/or GCC Rust. So let's add this for the
  time being in case it helps somebody. ]

Add '-fstrict-flex-arrays' to the list of cflags that should be ignored
by bindgen.

Miguel Ojeda ae6df65dab rust: upgrade to Rust 1.72.1
This is the third upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.71.1 to 1.72.1
(i.e. the latest) [1].

See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").

# Unstable features

No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized.

Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside
the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be
upstreamed may increase the list.

Please see [3] for details.

# Other improvements

Previously, the compiler could incorrectly generate a `.eh_frame`
section under `-Cpanic=abort`. We were hitting this bug when debug
assertions were enabled (`CONFIG_RUST_DEBUG_ASSERTIONS=y`) [4]:

      LD      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
    ld.lld: error: <internal>:(.eh_frame) is being placed in '.eh_frame'

Gary fixed the issue in Rust 1.72.0 [5].

# Required changes

For the upgrade, the following changes are required:

  - A call to `Box::from_raw` in `rust/kernel/sync/arc.rs` now requires
    an explicit `drop()` call. See previous patch for details.

# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing

The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.

There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates

Miguel Ojeda 828176d037 rust: arc: add explicit drop() around Box::from_raw()
`Box::from_raw()` is `#[must_use]`, which means the result cannot
go unused.

In Rust 1.71.0, this was not detected because the block expression
swallows the diagnostic [1]:

    unsafe { Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()) };

It would have been detected, however, if the line had been instead:

    unsafe { Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()); }

i.e. the semicolon being inside the `unsafe` block, rather than
outside.

In Rust 1.72.0, the compiler started warning about this [2], so
without this patch we will get:

        error: unused return value of `alloc::boxed::Box::<T>::from_raw` that must be used
        --> rust/kernel/sync/arc.rs:302:22
        |
    302 |             unsafe { Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()) };
        |                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        |
        = note: call `drop(Box::from_raw(ptr))` if you intend to drop the `Box`
        = note: `-D unused-must-use` implied by `-D warnings`
    help: use `let _ = ...` to ignore the resulting value
        |
    302 |             unsafe { let _ = Box::from_raw(self.ptr.as_ptr()); };
        |                      +++++++                                 +

Thus add an add an explicit `drop()` as the `#[must_use]`'s
annotation suggests (instead of the more general help line).

Alice Ryhl 7324b88975 rust: workqueue: add helper for defining work_struct fields
The main challenge with defining `work_struct` fields is making sure
that the function pointer stored in the `work_struct` is appropriate for
the work item type it is embedded in. It needs to know the offset of the
`work_struct` field being used (even if there are several!) so that it
can do a `container_of`, and it needs to know the type of the work item
so that it can call into the right user-provided code. All of this needs
to happen in a way that provides a safe API to the user, so that users
of the workqueue cannot mix up the function pointers.

There are three important pieces that are relevant when doing this:

 * The pointer type.
 * The work item struct. This is what the pointer points at.
 * The `work_struct` field. This is a field of the work item struct.

This patch introduces a separate trait for each piece. The pointer type
is given a `WorkItemPointer` trait, which pointer types need to
implement to be usable with the workqueue. This trait will be
implemented for `Arc` and `Box` in a later patch in this patchset.
Implementing this trait is unsafe because this is where the
`container_of` operation happens, but user-code will not need to
implement it themselves.

The work item struct should then implement the `WorkItem` trait. This
trait is where user-code specifies what they want to happen when a work
item is executed. It also specifies what the correct pointer type is.

Finally, to make the work item struct know the offset of its
`work_struct` field, we use a trait called `HasWork<T, ID>`. If a type
implements this trait, then the type declares that, at the given offset,
there is a field of type `Work<T, ID>`. The trait is marked unsafe
because the OFFSET constant must be correct, but we provide an
`impl_has_work!` macro that can safely implement `HasWork<T>` on a type.
The macro expands to something that only compiles if the specified field
really has the type `Work<T>`. It is used like this:

```
struct MyWorkItem {
    work_field: Work<MyWorkItem, 1>,
}

impl_has_work! {
    impl HasWork<MyWorkItem, 1> for MyWorkItem { self.work_field }
}
```

Note that since the `Work` type is annotated with an id, you can have
several `work_struct` fields by using a different id for each one.
