Actually, the driver-core tree gained these commits over the weekend:

  51d0de7596a4 ("rust: platform: require Send for Driver trait implementers")
  935e1d90bf6f ("rust: pci: require Send for Driver trait implementers")
  455943aa187f ("rust: platform: impl Send + Sync for platform::Device")
  e2942bb4e629 ("rust: pci: impl Send + Sync for pci::Device")

A heads up would have been nice ... and maybe even a test merge and
build against -next (given how late we are in the cycle).
