mm: rust: add abstraction for struct mm_struct
Patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap", v16.
This updates the vm_area_struct support to use the approach we discussed
at LPC where there are several different Rust wrappers for vm_area_struct
depending on the kind of access you have to the vma. Each case allows a
different set of operations on the vma.
This includes an MM MAINTAINERS entry as proposed by Lorenzo:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/33e64b12-aa07-4e78-933a-b07c37ff1d84@lucifer.local/
This patch (of 9):
These abstractions allow you to reference a `struct mm_struct` using both
mmgrab and mmget refcounts. This is done using two Rust types:
* Mm - represents an mm_struct where you don't know anything about the
value of mm_users.
* MmWithUser - represents an mm_struct where you know at compile time
that mm_users is non-zero.
This allows us to encode in the type system whether a method requires that
mm_users is non-zero or not. For instance, you can always call
`mmget_not_zero` but you can only call `mmap_read_lock` when mm_users is
non-zero.
The struct is called Mm to keep consistency with the C side.
The ability to obtain `current->mm` is added later in this series.
The mm module is defined to only exist when CONFIG_MMU is set. This
avoids various errors due to missing types and functions when CONFIG_MMU
is disabled. More fine-grained cfgs can be considered in the future. See
the thread at [1] for more info.
