Please don't use CPU_32v6* here.

It probably makes more sense to add a symbol "HAVE_RUST" and have the
appropriate architecture Kconfig files select HAVE_RUST.

Does Rust support Thumb on ARMv6 and ARMv7 architectures?

Please remove every utterance of "default n" from your patch; n is the
default default which default defaults to, so you don't need to specify
default n to make the option default to n. It will default to n purely
because n is the default when no default is specified.

As Rust doesn't support all the architectures that the kernel supports,
Rust must not be used for core infrastructure.
