Replace the use of `as_ptr` which works through `&lt;CStr as
Deref&lt;Target=&amp;[u8]&gt;::deref()` in preparation for replacing
`kernel::str::CStr` with `core::ffi::CStr` as the latter does not
implement `Deref&lt;Target=&amp;[u8]&gt;`.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

 - NVMe pull request via Keith:
     - FC target fixes (Daniel)
     - Authentication fixes and updates (Martin, Chris)
     - Admin controller handling (Kamaljit)
     - Target lockdep assertions (Max)
     - Keep-alive updates for discovery (Alastair)
     - Suspend quirk (Georg)

 - MD pull request via Yu:
     - Add support for a lockless bitmap.

       A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
       lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
       bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
       to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
       writes.

       By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
       case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
       need to do a full disk resync/recovery.

 - Switch -&gt;getgeo() and -&gt;bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
   than struct block_device.

 - Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
   configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
   includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
   cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.

   The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
   `kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
   to support the same use as the removed logic.

 - floppy arch cleanups

 - Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands

 - Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class
   of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket
   setups.

 - A few s390 dasd block fixes

 - Fix a few issues around atomic writes

 - Improve DMA interation for integrity requests

 - Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment
   constraints.

   We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now
   only the request as a whole needs to.

 - Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata
   payloads

 - Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate

 - Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections

 - Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs

 - Clean up and improve updating nr_requests for a live device

 - Various fixes and cleanups

* tag 'for-6.18/block-20250929' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux: (164 commits)
  s390/dasd: enforce dma_alignment to ensure proper buffer validation
  s390/dasd: Return BLK_STS_INVAL for EINVAL from do_dasd_request
  ublk: remove redundant zone op check in ublk_setup_iod()
  nvme: Use non zero KATO for persistent discovery connections

  nvme-core: do ioccsz/iorcsz validation only for I/O controllers

Prepare for `core::ffi::CStr` taking the place of `kernel::str::CStr` by
avoid methods that only exist on the latter.

Also avoid `Deref&lt;Target=BStr&gt; for CStr` as that impl doesn't exist on
`core::ffi::CStr`.

<title>rust: types: rename Opaque::raw_get to cast_into</title>

<id>64fb810bce03a4e2b4d3ecbba04bb97da3536dd8</id>
<content type='text'>
In the previous patch we added Opaque::cast_from() that performs the
opposite operation to Opaque::raw_get(). For consistency with this
naming, rename raw_get() to cast_from().

There are a few other options such as calling cast_from() something
closer to raw_get() rather than renaming this method. However, I could
not find a great naming scheme that works with raw_get(). The previous
version of this patch used from_raw(), but functions of that name
typically have a different signature, so that's not a great option.

Pull pin-init updates from Benno Lossin:
 "Added:

   - 'impl&lt;T, E&gt; [Pin]Init&lt;T, E&gt; for Result&lt;T, E&gt;', so results are now
     (pin-)initializers.

   - 'Zeroable::init_zeroed()' delegating to 'init_zeroed()'.

   - New 'zeroed()', a safe version of 'mem::zeroed()' and also provide
     it via 'Zeroable::zeroed()'.

   - Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option&lt;&amp;T&gt;' and 'Option&lt;&amp;mut T&gt;'.

   - Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option&lt;[unsafe] [extern "abi"]
     fn(...args...) -&gt; ret&gt;' for '"Rust"' and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20
     arguments.

  Changed:

   - Blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl&lt;T, E&gt;
     [Pin]Init&lt;T, E&gt; for T' to 'impl&lt;T&gt; [Pin]Init&lt;T&gt; for T'.

   - Renamed 'zeroed()' to 'init_zeroed()'.

  Upstream dev news:

   - More CI improvements to deny warnings, use '--all-targets'. Also
     check the synchronization status of the two '-next' branches in
     upstream and the kernel."

Use a consistent `# Examples` heading in rustdoc across the codebase.

Some modules previously used `## Examples` (even when they should be
available as top-level headers), while others used `# Example`, which
deviates from the preferred `# Examples` style.

In Rust 1.78.0, Clippy introduced the `ref_as_ptr` lint [1]:

&gt; Using `as` casts may result in silently changing mutability or type.

While this doesn't eliminate unchecked `as` conversions, it makes such
conversions easier to scrutinize.  It also has the slight benefit of
removing a degree of freedom on which to bikeshed. Thus apply the
changes and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.

In Rust 1.51.0, Clippy introduced the `ptr_as_ptr` lint [1]:

&gt; Though `as` casts between raw pointers are not terrible,
&gt; `pointer::cast` is safer because it cannot accidentally change the
&gt; pointer's mutability, nor cast the pointer to other types like `usize`.

There are a few classes of changes required:
- Modules generated by bindgen are marked
  `#[allow(clippy::ptr_as_ptr)]`.
- Inferred casts (` as _`) are replaced with `.cast()`.
- Ascribed casts (` as *... T`) are replaced with `.cast::&lt;T&gt;()`.
- Multistep casts from references (` as *const _ as *const T`) are
  replaced with `core::ptr::from_ref(&amp;x).cast()` with or without `::&lt;T&gt;`
  according to the previous rules. The `core::ptr::from_ref` call is
  required because `(x as *const _).cast::&lt;T&gt;()` results in inference
  failure.
- Native literal C strings are replaced with `c_str!().as_char_ptr()`.
- `*mut *mut T as _` is replaced with `let *mut *const T = (*mut *mut
  T)`.cast();` since pointer to pointer can be confusing.

Apply these changes and enable the lint -- no functional change
intended.

The name `zeroed` is a much better fit for a function that returns the
type by-value.
