The Rust compiler can take a target config from 'target.json', which is
generated by scripts/generate_rust_target.rs. It used to be that all
Linux architectures used this to generate a target.json, but now
architectures must opt-in to this, or they will default to the Rust
compiler's built-in target definition.
This is mostly okay for (64-bit) x86 and UML, except that it can
generate SSE instructions, which we can't use in the kernel. So
re-instate the custom target.json, which disables SSE (and generally
enables the 'soft-float' feature). This fixes the following compile
error:
error: <unknown>:0:0: in function _RNvMNtCs5QSdWC790r4_4core3f32f7next_up float (float): SSE register return with SSE disabled

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 reStructuredText 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.
