Subject: [PATCH] rust: declare cfi_encoding for lru_status

By default bindgen will convert 'enum lru_status' into a typedef for an
integer, but this leads to the wrong cfi type. It's supposed to be a
type called "lru_status" rather than the underlying native integer type.

To fix this, tell bindgen to generate a newtype and set the CFI type
explicitly. Note that we need to set the CFI attribute explicitly as
bindgen is using repr(transparent), which is otherwise identical to the
inner type for ABI purposes.

This allows us to remove the page range helper C function in Binder
without risking a CFI failure when list_lru_walk calls the provided
function pointer.

This requires bindgen v0.71 or greater.
