Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 0/5] Various Rust bindings for files

This contains bindings for various file related things that binder needs
to use.

I would especially like feedback on the SAFETY comments. Particularly,
the safety comments in patch 4 and 5 are non-trivial. For example:

 * In patch 4, I claim that passing POLLHUP|POLLFREE to __wake_up is
   enough to ensure that we can now destroy the wait_list without
   risking any use-after-frees, even if we have registered it with
   epoll. Is that correct?

 * In patch 5, I implement a utility for closing fds that might be held
   using `fdget`. This is rather non-trivial, and I would be happy to
   hear suggestions about alternate solutions.

This patch is based on top of
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230426204923.16195-1-amiculas@cisco.com/
which is currently the top commit on rust-next.
