[PATCH V9 07/17] rust: macros: enable use of hyphens in module names

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Fri Apr 11 2025 - 07:02:18 EST


From: Anisse Astier <anisse@xxxxxxxxx>

Some modules might need naming that contains hyphens "-" to match the
auto-probing by name in the platform devices that comes from the device
tree.

But rust identifiers cannot contain hyphens, so replace the module name
by an underscore anywhere we'd use it as an identifier.
