I did just that here: [1]
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250128-add-bitfield-options-macro-v2-1-d65349b389fc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [1]

Maybe I should have made a second patch in this series instead of a new
series but since this usage example depends on the HrTimer patch series I
thought it best to separate. I am new here though, so I may very well be
wrong about that.
[1] depended on this v2 so I could not reference it in the v2, I think. I
will reference it in the v3.

Will fix, thanks.

Will fix thanks.

I have no opinion on this, I'll make the change for readability.

I'll remove them all then.

Thank you Daniel,
