Also just for confirmation: is the intent that all register offsets, and masks are kept private within this module, with each register having its own type and dedicated methods to read/write it and extract useful information from it? I haven't really written Rust kernel code before, so I was wondering how we would deal with this problem. This looks like a pretty safe solution.
