For some reason I deleted the series from my mailbox, must've been in
dt-binding review mode and hit ctrl + d. I've been away and busy, so my
apologies Alice for not trying this out sooner.
It's sorta annoying to test rust + scs on riscv, cos you need (unless I
am mistaken) llvm-19. llvm-18 + rust built fine, but has no SCS.

llvm-19 + rust failed to build for me riscv, producing:

2 errors generated.

This occurs because I have DEBUG_SPINLOCK enabled. I didn't check why,
but Andreas seems to have introduced that code - luckily he's already on
CC here :)

With that disabled, there are dozens of warnings along the lines of:
/stuff/linux/rust/helpers/err.c:6:14: warning: symbol 'rust_helper_ERR_PTR' was not declared. Should it be static?
If those are okay for rust code, it would be rather helpful if the
warnings could be disabled - otherwise they should really be fixed.

Following that, I got a build error:

I stopped there, Space Marine 2 awaits.

Hopefully I'll get to say hello next week,
Conor.
