Miguel Ojeda f1d3703fa3 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.

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

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
