[PATCH v12 4/4] rust: support large alignments in allocations
Posted by Vitaly Wool 2 months, 4 weeks ago
Add support for large (> PAGE_SIZE) alignments in Rust allocators.
All the preparations on the C side are already done, we just need
to add bindings for <alloc>_node_align() functions and start
using those.

Since you remove the pr_warn!(), you also have to remove the corresponding
import, otherwise you get a clippy warning.

Please build with CLIPPY=1, see also [1].
