Milk-V Jupiter Linux kernel
f9275893b0
commit a5a3c952e82c1ada12bf8c55b73af26f1a454bd2 upstream. Currently while defining `THIS_MODULE` symbol in `module!()`, the pointer used to construct `ThisModule` is derived from an immutable reference of `__this_module`, which means the pointer doesn't have the provenance for writing, and that means any write to that pointer is UB regardless of data races or not. However, the usage of `THIS_MODULE` includes passing this pointer to functions that may write to it (probably in unsafe code), and this will create soundness issues. One way to fix this is using `addr_of_mut!()` but that requires the unstable feature "const_mut_refs". So instead of `addr_of_mut()!`, an extern static `Opaque` is used here: since `Opaque<T>` is transparent to `T`, an extern static `Opaque` will just wrap the C symbol (defined in a C compile unit) in an `Opaque`, which provides a pointer with writable provenance via `Opaque::get()`. This fix the potential UBs because of pointer provenance unmatched.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
