* Rationale: Upgrades bindgen to code-generation for anonymous unions, structs, and enums [7] for LLVM-16 based toolchains. The following upgrade also incorporates `noreturn` support from bindgen allowing us to remove useless `loop` calls which was placed as a workaround. * Truncated build logs on using bindgen `v0.56.0` prior to LLVM-16 toolchain: ``` $ make rustdoc LLVM=1 CLIPPY=1 -j$(nproc) RUSTC L rust/core.o BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_generated.rs BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_helpers_generated.rs BINDGEN rust/uapi/uapi_generated.rs thread 'main' panicked at '"ftrace_branch_data_union_(anonymous_at__/_/include/linux/compiler_types_h_146_2)" is not a valid Ident', .../proc-macro2-1.0.24/src/fallback.rs:693:9 ... thread 'main' panicked at '"ftrace_branch_data_union_(anonymous_at__/_/include/linux/compiler_types_h_146_2)" is not a valid Ident', .../proc-macro2-1.0.24/src/fallback.rs:693:9 ... ``` * LLVM-16 Changes: API changes [1] were introduced such that libclang would emit names like "(unnamed union at compiler_types.h:146:2)" for unnamed unions, structs, and enums whereas it previously returned an empty string. * Bindgen Changes: Bindgen `v0.56.0` on LLVM-16 based toolchains hence was unable to process the anonymous union in `include/linux/compiler_types` `struct ftrace_branch_data` and caused subsequent panics as the new `libclang` API emitted name was not being handled. The following issue was fixed in Bindgen `v0.62.0` [2]. Bindgen `v0.58.0` changed the flags `--whitelist-*` and `--blacklist-*` to `--allowlist-*` and `--blocklist-*` respectively [3]. Bindgen `v0.61.0` added support for `_Noreturn`, `[[noreturn]]`, `__attribute__((noreturn))` [4], hence the empty `loop`s used to circumvent bindgen returning `!` in place of `()` for noreturn attributes have been removed completely. Bindgen `v0.61.0` also changed default functionality to bind `size_t` to `usize` [5] and added the `--no-size_t-is-usize` [5] flag to not bind `size_t` as `usize`. Bindgen `v0.65.0` removed `--size_t-is-usize` flag [6].
