[PATCH v2] rust: alloc: Add realloc and alloc_zeroed to the GlobalAlloc impl
From: Boqun Feng
Date: Sun Jun 25 2023 - 19:25:58 EST
While there are default impls for these methods, using the respective C
api's is faster. Currently neither the existing nor these new
GlobalAlloc method implementations are actually called. Instead the
__rust_* function defined below the GlobalAlloc impl are used. With
rustc 1.71 these functions will be gone and all allocation calls will go
through the GlobalAlloc implementation.

[boqun: add size adjustment for alignment requirement]

Miguel, I fold my diff into Björn's original patch and make a v2, it
relies on the other patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/6e61f06f-2411-0bcb-926b-0a6927096f20@xxxxxxxxx/
So this v2 (if all goes well) is targeted for v6.6, JFYI.
v1 -> v2:
* Add size adjustment for align requirement.
