Subject: [GIT PULL] Rust ALLOC & DMA for v6.18

Hi Miguel,

Please pull the following ALLOC & DMA changes.

All commits have been in linux-next for a couple of weeks. There are two trivial
conflicts with the -mm and Linus' tree [1][2].

Some patches that would usually go through this tree went through the -mm tree
[3][4]; [5] and [6] go through drm-rust together with their first user -- one
minor import conflict in samples/rust/rust_dma.rs expected.

- Danilo

  rust: alloc: remove `allocator_test` (2025-08-24 15:30:40 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Alloc & DMA changes for v6.18

Allocator:
  - Provide information about the minimum alignment guarantees of
    Kmalloc, Vmalloc and KVmalloc.
  - Take minimum alignment guarantees of allocators for ForeignOwnable
    into account.
  - Remove the `allocator_test` incl. `Cmalloc`.

Box:
  - Implement Box::pin_slice(), which constructs a pinned slice of
    elements.

Vec:
  - Simplify KUnit test module name to "rust_kvec".
  - Add doc-test for Vec::as_slice().
  - Constify various methods.

DMA:
  - Update ARef and AlwaysRefCounted imports.

MISC:
  - Remove support for unused host `#[test]`s.
  - Constify ArrayLayout::new_unchecked().
