Subject: [PATCH 14/24] rust: auxiliary: generalize Registration over ForLt
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 00:11:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260427221155.2144848-15-dakr@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260427221155.2144848-1-dakr@kernel.org>

Generalize Registration<T> to Registration<F: ForLt> and
Device::registration_data<F: ForLt>() to return Pin<&F::Of<'_>>.

The stored 'static lifetime is shortened to the borrow lifetime of &self
via ForLt::cast_ref; ForLt's covariance guarantee makes this sound.
