I didn't follow the discussion, so if you explained it there, it would be nice if you could also add it to this commit message. > diff --git a/rust/kernel/workqueue.rs b/rust/kernel/workqueue.rs > index 0cd100d2aefb..0e2e0ecc58a6 100644 > --- a/rust/kernel/workqueue.rs > +++ b/rust/kernel/workqueue.rs > @@ -429,51 +429,23 @@ pub unsafe fn raw_get(ptr: *const Self) -> *mut bindings::work_struct { > /// > /// # Safety > /// > -/// The [`OFFSET`] constant must be the offset of a field in `Self` of type [`Work<T, ID>`].
