[PATCH 2/3] rust: hrtimer: declare cfi_encoding for hrtimer_restart
From: Sami Tolvanen
Date: Mon Oct 19 2026 - 19:35:39 EST
The hrtimer callbacks return bindings::hrtimer_restart, which bindgen
generates as c_uint. C calls them through hrtimer->function, which
returns enum hrtimer_restart. kCFI encodes enum types by name even with
integer normalization, so the type ids never match and every call fails
the CFI check.
Generate hrtimer_restart as a newtype with a cfi_encoding, as is done
for lru_status, and adapt HrTimerRestart to the newtype.
Fixes: 8a8afe9349fb ("rust: hrtimer: introduce hrtimer support")
