One solution is to delete rustc-option-yn since there are no users of it. Another solution is to refactor the code. Either way, there is no good reason for code duplication. If you keep rustc-option-yn, you can rebased v3 on top of this patch: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20241009102821.2675718-1-masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u > > But I realize that it's not clear-cut.

Miguel gave perfect explanation. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kbuild/CAK7LNARDkS6uAHcdyZatc2SB7A66TWGfKZWNkYOoa7i3jo3QqA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#m899bc321ae80d9c4a904680709c9a53f09e51b9e > > > Alice > -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada
