[PATCH RFC 0/4] rust: add basic serial device bus abstractions

[Markus Probst <markus.probst@posteo.de>]

This patch series adds the serdev device bus rust abstraction into the
kernel.

This abstraction will be used by a driver I am currently working on,
which targets the MCU devices in Synology devices.

Kari Argillander also messaged me, stating that he wants to write a
watchdog driver with this abstraction (needing initial device data).

@Rob: Are you willing to maintain these rust abstractions yourself,
as you are the expert on this subsystem, otherwise I would take care of
it with a "SERIAL DEVICE BUS [RUST]" section in the MAINTAINERS file. In
the second case, I assume you are going to pick those patches as-is into
your tree, after they have been reviewed?
