I hit the following compile error when trying to run kunit test:

	ERROR:root:error: unreachable `pub` item
	    --> rust/doctests_kernel_generated.rs:4167:1
	     |
	4167 | pub fn bytes_add_one(uptr: *mut c_void, len: usize) -> Result<()> {
	     | ---^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	     | |
	     | help: consider restricting its visibility: `pub(crate)`
	     |
	     = help: or consider exporting it for use by other crates
	     = note: requested on the command line with `-D unreachable-pub`

	error: unreachable `pub` item
	    --> rust/doctests_kernel_generated.rs:4243:1

	4243 | pub fn get_bytes_if_valid(uptr: *mut c_void, len: usize) -> Result<Vec<u8>> {
	     | ---^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	     | |
	     | help: consider restricting its visibility: `pub(crate)`
	     |
	     = help: or consider exporting it for use by other crates

	error: aborting due to 2 previous errors

, which should be fixed if we make the function in the example not
`pub`.

Ditto here.
