Merge tag 'driver-core-6.12-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here is a single driver core fix, and a .mailmap update.

  The fix is for the rust driver core bindings, turned out that the
  from_raw binding wasn't a good idea (don't want to pass a pointer to a
  reference counted object without actually incrementing the pointer.)
  So this change fixes it up as the from_raw binding came in in -rc1.

  The other change is a .mailmap update.

  Both have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues"
