Subject: [PATCH] rust: kbuild: skip gendwarfksyms in `bindings.o` for Rust >= 1.91.0

Starting with Rust 1.91.0 (released 2025-10-30), in upstream commit
ab91a63d403b ("Ignore intrinsic calls in cross-crate-inlining cost model")
[1][2], `bindings.o` stops containing DWARF debug information because the
`Default` implementations contained `write_bytes()` calls which are now
ignored in that cost model (note that `CLIPPY=1` does not reproduce it).

This means `gendwarfksyms` complains:

      RUSTC L rust/bindings.o
    error: gendwarfksyms: process_module: dwarf_get_units failed: no debugging information?

For the moment, conditionally skip `gendwarfksyms` for Rust >= 1.91.0.

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