[PATCH] rust: slice: fix broken intra-doc links

From: Miguel Ojeda

Date: Wed Nov 19 2025 - 13:51:56 EST


In older versions of Rust, the compiler doesn't know about the newer
`as_flattened*` methods, thus `rustdoc` complains about the intra-doc
links, e.g.

error: unresolved link to `slice::as_flattened`
--> rust/kernel/slice.rs:19:23
|
19 | /// [`as_flattened`]: slice::as_flattened
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the primitive type `slice` has no associated item named `as_flattened`
|
= note: `-D rustdoc::broken-intra-doc-links` implied by `-D warnings`
= help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(rustdoc::broken_intra_doc_links)]`

Thus fix them by using an URL instead.

Fixes: 88622323dde3 ("rust: enable slice_flatten feature and provide it through an extension trait")

I have seen this in -next -- please feel free to take it or rebase if
preferred etc., of course. Thanks!
