The stable backport in commit acc105db0826 ("rust: pin-init:
add references to previously initialized fields") introduced some
`clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks` warnings [1], e.g.
error: unsafe block missing a safety comment
--> rust/kernel/init/macros.rs:1015:25
As well as:
--> rust/kernel/init/macros.rs:1243:45
--> rust/kernel/init/macros.rs:1286:22
--> rust/kernel/init/macros.rs:1374:45
After discussing it with Benno and Gary, we decided to clean the build
log by doing a minimal targeted stable commit.
Thus, depending on the case:
- Reorder the attributes so that the existing `// SAFETY:` comments
may be seen by Clippy.
- Add a placeholder `// SAFETY: TODO.` comment.
