Commit 3197de1
rust: alloc: eschew
Upstream Rust's libs-api team has consensus for stabilizing some of
`feature(new_uninit)`, but not for `Box<MaybeUninit<T>>::write`. Instead,
we can use `MaybeUninit<T>::write`, so Rust for Linux can drop the
feature after stabilization. That will happen after merging, as the FCP
has completed [1].
This is required before stabilization because remaining-unstable API
will be divided into new features. This code doesn't know about those
yet. It can't: they haven't landed, as the relevant PR is blocked on
rustc's CI testing Rust-for-Linux without this patch.
[ The PR has landed [2], so we could conditionally enable the new
unstable feature (`box_uninit_write` [3]) instead, but just for a
single `unsafe` block it is probably not worth it. For the time being,
I added it to the "nice to have" section of our unstable features
list. - Miguel ]
