Confirmed, on an arm64 build with the Tyr driver enabled:

error[E0063]: missing field `handle_free` in initializer of `drm_gem_object_funcs`
--> /home/klara/git/linux/trees/next-local/rust/kernel/drm/gem/shmem.rs:130:52
|
130 | const VTABLE: bindings::drm_gem_object_funcs = bindings::drm_gem_object_funcs {
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ missing `handle_free`

error: aborting due to 1 previous error

For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0063`.

I'll wait a while for other thoughts and otherwise respin with this
included.
