Maybe this should be two commits, one for the new crate, another one to
introduce the ability to use on bindgen types.

I have tried this with the Nova bindings, and somehow could not get past
this error:

    error[E0433]: failed to resolve: could not find `ffi` in the list of imported crates
      --> ../drivers/gpu/nova-core/gsp/fw/r570_144/bindings.rs:321:54
        |
    321 | #[derive(Debug, Default, Copy, Clone, MaybeZeroable, FromBytesFfi)]
        |                                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^ could not find `ffi` in the list of imported crates
        |
        = note: this error originates in the derive macro `FromBytesFfi` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)

I do have `kernel::ffi` imported in the bindings module though, so I am
not quite sure what this is about. Any idea?
