The kernel allows arches to select between inline and outline
implementations of the copy_{from,to}_user() by defining individual
INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, correspondingly. However,
all arches enable or disable them always together.
Without the real use-case for one helper being inlined while the other
outlined, having independent controls is excessive and error prone.
Switch the codebase to the single unified INLINE_COPY_USER control.

Patch series "uaccess: unify inline vs outline copy_{from,to}_user()
selection", v2.
The kernel allows arches to select between inline and outline
implementations of the copy_{from,to}_user() by defining individual
INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, correspondingly. However,
all arches enable or disable them always together.
Without the real use-case for one helper being inlined while the other
outlined, having independent controls is excessive and error prone.
The first patch of the series fixes rust/uaccess coppy_to_user() wrapper
guarded with INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER. The 2nd patch switches codebase to
the unified INLINE_COPY_USER. And the last patch cleans up ifdefery in
the include/linux/uaccess.h
This patch (of 3):
The copy_to_user() rust helper is only needed when the main kernel inlines
the function. It is controlled by INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, but the rust
helper is protected with INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER.
Fix that.

This is needed to inline these helpers into Rust code.

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]

This removes the need to explicitly export all symbols.
Generate helper exports similarly to what's currently done for Rust
crates. These helpers are exclusively called from within Rust code and
therefore can be treated similar as other Rust symbols.

[ Fixed dependency path, reworded slightly, edited comment a bit and
rebased on top of the changes made when applying Andreas' patch
(e.g. no `README.md` anymore, so moved the edits). - Miguel ]

This patch splits up the rust helpers C file. When rebasing patch sets on
upstream linux, merge conflicts in helpers.c is common and time consuming
[1]. Thus, split the file so that each kernel component can live in a
separate file.
This patch lists helper files explicitly and thus conflicts in the file
list is still likely. However, they should be more simple to resolve than
the conflicts usually seen in helpers.c.
[ Removed `README.md` and undeleted the original comment since now,
in v3 of the series, we have a `helpers.c` again; which also allows
us to keep the "Sorted alphabetically" line and makes the diff easier.
In addition, updated the Documentation/ mentions of the file, reworded
title and removed blank lines at the end of `page.c`. - Miguel ]
