Merge tag 'alloc-next-v6.17-2025-07-15' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux into rust-next

Pull alloc and DMA updates from Danilo Krummrich:

  Box:
   - Implement Borrow / BorrowMut for Box<T, A>.

  Vec:
   - Implement Default for Vec<T, A>.

   - Implement Borrow / BorrowMut for Vec<T, A>.

  DMA:
   - Clarify wording and be consistent in 'coherent' nomenclature.

   - Convert the read!() / write!() macros to return a Result.

   - Add as_slice() / write() methods in CoherentAllocation.

   - Fix doc-comment of dma_handle().

   - Expose count() and size() in CoherentAllocation and add the
     corresponding type invariants.

   - Implement CoherentAllocation::dma_handle_with_offset().

   - Require mutable reference for as_slice_mut() and write().

  MAINTAINERS:
   - Add Vlastimil Babka, Liam R. Howlett, Uladzislau Rezki and Lorenzo
     Stoakes as reviewers (thanks everyone).
