Apply 3 commits for 6.13.y

Apply 3 commits for 6.13.y

[Miguel Ojeda]

Hi Greg, Sasha,

Please consider applying the following commits for 6.13.y:

    27c7518e7f1c ("rust: finish using custom FFI integer types")
    1bae8729e50a ("rust: map `long` to `isize` and `char` to `u8`")
    9b98be76855f ("rust: cleanup unnecessary casts")

They should apply cleanly.

This backports the custom FFI integer types, which in turn solves a
build failure under `CONFIG_RUST_FW_LOADER_ABSTRACTIONS=y`.

I will have to send something similar to 6.12.y, but it requires more
commits -- I may do the `alloc` backport first we discussed the other
day.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel

Thanks a lot!

Cc'ing the Asahi devs so they are aware of this for related downstream 
issues.

Hi Miguel,

Has anything come of these 6.12.y backports?  It sounds like we're
otherwise about to have to disable features in NixOS's default kernel
due to build regressions with Rust 1.85.0.

I will be sending it today (I will Cc you) -- it will be a fairly long
backport, so tests welcome!

Miguel
