Driver core fix for 6.12-rc3

Here is a single driver core fix, and a .mailmap update, for 6.12-rc3.
 
 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.
