https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/e3610441d1fb47b1f00e4c38bdf333176e824729

• Start to use 'derive(CoercePointee)' on Rust >= 1.84.0. This is a major milestone on the path to build the kernel using only stable Rust features. […]

• Finish the move to custom FFI integer types started in the previous cycle and finally map 'long' to 'isize' and 'char' to 'u8'.

• Introduce 'PROCMACROLDFLAGS' environment variable to allow […] which Android needs.
