Consider backporting rustdoc fixes for 6.18.y

Consider backporting rustdoc fixes for 6.18.y

[Miguel Ojeda]

Hi Greg, Sasha, David,

I have been seeing these warnings (errors with `WERROR=y`) in stable
6.18 UML + Rust on the `rustdoc` target [1].

Unless David (who works around UML + Rust) or the different
maintainers (Cc'd) have a concern, please consider backporting:

  a9a42f0754b6 ("rust: device: fix broken intra-doc links")
  32cb3840386f ("rust: dma: fix broken intra-doc links")
  4c9f6a782f60 ("rust: driver: fix broken intra-doc links to example
driver types")

They had Fixes tags, but not Cc: stable tags.

I hope that helps & thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
