Linus Torvalds ae5fa8ce7e Driver core api addition for 6.14-rc3
Here is a driver core new api for 6.14-rc3 that is being added to allow
 platform devices from stop being abused.  It adds a new "faux_device"
 structure and bus and api to allow almost a straight or simpler
 conversion from platform devices that were not really a platform device.
 It also comes with a binding for rust, with an example driver in rust
 showing how it's used.
 
 I'm adding this now so that the patches that convert the different
 drivers and subsystems can all start flowing into linux-next now through
 their different development trees, in time for 6.15-rc1.  We have a
 number that are already reviewed and tested, but adding those
 conversions now doesn't seem right.  For now, no one is using this, and
 it passes all build tests from 0-day and linux-next, so all should be
 good.
