To avoid DoS on the kernel log, the Rust Binder driver is being switched
to rate limited printing. But before we can do that, we must first
implement rate limited printing for Rust. Thus, do that.

However, it turns out that before we can implement rate limited
printing, we must first implement the ability declare a raw_spinlock_t
in a global variable. Thus, do that too.

Changes in v5:
- Rebase on char-misc-next.
- Pick up Acked-by tags.
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

Changes in v4:
- Rebase series.
- Mark Ratelimit::new_static() with #[inline]
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

Changes in v3:
- Rebase on char-misc-testing.
- Add rust/kernel/sync/lockdep.rs to MAINTAINERS file.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

Changes in v2:
- Rebase on top of binder_debug! patch series.
  - As a consequence, the logic for printing the size of transaction
    failures is changed to print the size of each piece of the
    transaction, rather than the total buffer size.
- Add doc aliases for raw_spin_lock_unlocked.
- Make raw_spin_lock_unlocked and raw_lockdep_map private.
- Add Ratelimit::new_static.
- Add some missing links to docs.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
