The quilt patch titled
Subject: uaccess: decouple INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and CONFIG_RUST
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
uaccess-decouple-inline_copy_from_user-and-config_rust.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: uaccess: decouple INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and CONFIG_RUST
Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2025 13:16:06 -0400
Commit 1f9a8286bc0c ("uaccess: always export _copy_[from|to]_user with
CONFIG_RUST") exports _copy_{from,to}_user() unconditionally, if RUST is
enabled. This pollutes exported symbols namespace, and spreads RUST
ifdefery in core files.
It's better to declare a corresponding helper under the rust/helpers,
similarly to how non-underscored copy_{from,to}_user() is handled.
[yury.norov@gmail.com: drop rust part of comment for _copy_from_user(), per Alice]
