Rust support on s390 requires a small set of architecture-specific pieces
before the generic Rust kernel infrastructure can be used.
The series wires up s390 as a Rust-capable 64-bit architecture, adds the
missing assembly interfaces needed by Rust for WARN/BUG reporting and for
static branches, adjusts bindgen parameters to avoid repr layout conflicts
caused by packed and aligned s390 structures, and fixes issues discovered
during testing.
s390 currently requires rustc with support for -Zpacked-stack, and the
minimum tool version gating is adjusted accordingly.

Tested against: rustc 1.96.0 (ac68faa20 2026-05-25)
Changes since v4:
- Patch 4/6: Use kernel's memchr() instead of __builtin_memchr (Sashiko AI)
Changes since v3:
- Added patch 4/6: Add memchr wrapper preserving KASAN/FORTIFY_SOURCE (reported by Sashiko AI)
- Added patch 5/6: Fix KASAN stack-out-of-bounds in atomic helpers (reported by Miguel, suggested by Gary)
- Patch 6/6: Document CONFIG_EXPOLINE constraint in arch-support.rst (Sashiko AI feedback)
- Patch 6/6: Added Acked-by from Miguel Ojeda
Changes since v2:
- mflags: cleanup (thanks Gary)
Changes since v1:
- strip the -nightly suffix in min-tool-version.sh (thanks Miguel and Alice)
- ARCH_JUMP_TABLE_ENTRY() moved up to align comments properly (thanks Gary)
- removed MONCODE_BUG to prevent 0U in non-C context in assembler (noted by Sashiko - AI)
- prevent environment pollution by explicit initialization mflag := (noted by Sashiko - AI)
