Subject: [PATCH 2/5] rust: clean Rust 1.87.0's `clippy::ptr_eq` lints

Starting with Rust 1.87.0 (expected 2025-05-15) [1], Clippy may expand
the `ptr_eq` lint, e.g.:

    error: use `core::ptr::eq` when comparing raw pointers
       --> rust/kernel/list.rs:438:12
        |
    438 |         if self.first == item {
        |            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: try: `core::ptr::eq(self.first, item)`
        |
        = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#ptr_eq
        = note: `-D clippy::ptr-eq` implied by `-D warnings`
        = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(clippy::ptr_eq)]`

Thus clean the few cases we have.

This patch may not be actually needed by the time Rust 1.87.0 releases
since a PR to relax the lint has been beta nominated [2] due to reports
of being too eager (at least by default) [3].

Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # Needed in 6.12.y and later (Rust is pinned in older LTSs).
