Starting with Rust 1.91.0 (expected 2025-10-30), `rustdoc` has improved
some false negatives around intra-doc links [1], and it found a broken
intra-doc link we currently have:
error: unresolved link to `include/linux/device/faux.h`
--> rust/kernel/faux.rs:7:17
|
7 | //! C header: [`include/linux/device/faux.h`]
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ no item named `include/linux/device/faux.h` in scope
|
= help: to escape `[` and `]` characters, add '\' before them like `\[` or `\]`
= note: `-D rustdoc::broken-intra-doc-links` implied by `-D warnings`
= help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(rustdoc::broken_intra_doc_links)]`
Our `srctree/` C header links are not intra-doc links, thus they need
the link destination.
Thus fix it.

When building the kernel on Arch Linux using on x86_64 with tools:
$ rustc --version
rustc 1.84.0 (9fc6b4312 2025-01-07)
$ clang --version
clang version 19.1.7
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
The following symbols are generated:
$ nm vmlinux | rg ' _R' | rustfilt | rg faux
ffffffff81959ae0 T <kernel::faux::Registration>::new
ffffffff81959b40 T <kernel::faux::Registration as core::ops::drop::Drop>::drop
However, these Rust symbols are wrappers around bindings in the C faux
code. Inlining these functions removes the middle-man wrapper function
After applying this patch, the above function signatures disappear.
