[PATCH v4 15/16] rust: drm: Pass registration data to ioctl handlers

From: Danilo Krummrich

Date: Sat Jun 20 2026 - 14:56:48 EST


Pass registration data to ioctl handlers via
drm::Device<Registered>::registration_data_with(). The closure's HRTB
ties the lifetime to the closure scope, and the pointer cast shortens it
from 'static internally. The reference is valid for the duration of the
drm_dev_enter/exit critical section held by RegistrationGuard.
