Use hygienic identifiers for the guards instead of the field names. This makes the init macros feel more like normal struct initializers, since assigning identifiers with the name of a field does not create conflicts. Also change the internals of the guards, no need to make the `forget` function `unsafe`, since users cannot access the guards anyways. Now the guards are carried directly on the stack and have no extra `Cell<bool>` field that marks if they have been forgotten or not, instead they are just forgotten via `mem::forget`.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
