This series adds a new panic screen, with the kmsg data embedded in a QR code.
The main advantage of QR code, is that you can copy/paste the debug data to a bug report.
The QR code encoder is written in rust, and is very specific to drm panic.
The reason is that it is called in a panic handler, and thus can't allocate memory, or use locking.
The rust code uses a few rust core API, and provides only two C entry points.
There is no particular reason to do it in rust, I just wanted to learn rust, and see if it can work in the kernel.
If you want to see what it looks like, I've put a few screenshots here:

v2:
* Rewrite the rust comments with Markdown (Alice Ryhl)
* Mark drm_panic_qr_generate() as unsafe (Alice Ryhl)
* Use CStr directly, and remove the call to as_str_unchecked()
(Alice Ryhl)
* Add a check for data_len <= data_size (Greg KH)
v3:
* Fix all rust comments (typo, punctuation) (Miguel Ojeda)
* Change the wording of safety comments (Alice Ryhl)
* Add a link to the javascript decoder in the Kconfig (Greg KH)
* Fix data_size and tmp_size check in drm_panic_qr_generate()
v4:
* Fix the logic to find next line and skip the '\n' (Alice Ryhl)
* Remove __LOG_PREFIX as it's not used (Alice Ryhl)
