Merge tag 'drm-rust-next-2025-11-18' of https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/rust/kernel into drm-next

Cross-subsystem Changes:

Rust
  - Make slice::as_flattened usable on all supported versions of rustc.
  - Add FromBytes::from_bytes_prefix() method.

Core Changes:

  - Update Tyr in MAINTAINERS file.
  - Remove redundant device ptr from Rust GEM object.
  - Change how AlwaysRefCounted is implemented for GEM objects.
  - Add deferred vm_bo cleanup to GPUVM and use it in Panthor.

Driver Changes:

Nova Core
  - Introduction of bitfield! macro, with support for different storage sizes
    and custom visibility.
  - Introduction of safe converters between integer types for which the
    conversion is lossless.
  - GSP initialized up to fully booted state on Ampere.
  - Use more future-proof register for GPU identification.
  - Various simplifications and optimizations.

Nova
  - Select NOVA_CORE.
  - Depend on CONFIG_64BIT.
