This is up to the subsystem maintainers where the respective
abstractions may belong to. Some subsystems prefer to get a
co-maintainers for the entire subsystem (e.g. because they want help
with maintenance; see "M:" entries with "(RUST)"), others prefer to
have a sub-entry (sub-subsystem) where you would maintain the Rust
side (see e.g. entries' titles with "[RUST]"), others prefer to own
the Rust code, etc.

Then another question is how the patches should flow: some maintainers
may prefer to get a PR from you, others may prefer to take the patches
directly after you review them, etc.

I have some notes at:

I hope that helps!
