Subject: [PATCH v2] rust: of: replace `core::mem::zeroed` with `pin_init::zeroed`
Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2025 10:51:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251031-zeroed-of-rs-v2-1-f89ff71e943e@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Moritz Zielke <moritz.zielke@gmail.com>
All types in `bindings` implement `Zeroable` if they can, so use
`pin_init::zeroed` instead of relying on `unsafe` code.
If this ends up not compiling in the future, something in bindgen or on
the C side changed and is most likely incorrect.

Changes in v2:
- Rearrange tags and `---` so tags don't get lost when patch is applied
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251030-zeroed-of-rs-v1-1-1c46d025128e@gmail.com
