This patch series implements the necessary Rust abstractions to implement
device drivers in Rust.
This includes some basic generalizations for driver registration, handling of ID
tables, MMIO operations and device resource handling.
Those generalizations are used to implement device driver support for two
busses, the PCI and platfrom bus (with OF IDs) in order to provide some evidence
that the generalizations work as intended.
The patch series also includes two patches adding two driver samples, one PCI
driver and one platform driver.
The PCI bits are motivated by the Nova driver project [1], but are used by at
least one more OOT driver (rnvme [2]).
The platform bits, besides adding some more evidence to the base abstractions,
are required by a few more OOT drivers aiming at going upstream, i.e. rvkms [3],
cpufreq-dt [4], asahi [5] and the i2c work from Fabien [6].
The patches of this series can also be [7], [8] and [9].
Just some minor typos:
