Subject: [PATCH 5/5] rust: pin-init: replace `addr_of_mut!` with `&raw mut`
Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2026 10:35:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260319093542.3756606-6-lossin@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260319093542.3756606-1-lossin@kernel.org>
From: Antonio Hickey <contact@antoniohickey.com>
`feature(raw_ref_op)` became stable in Rust 1.82.0 which is the current
MSRV of pin-init with no default features. Earlier Rust versions will
now need to enable `raw_ref_op` to continue to work with pin-init.
This reduces visual complexity and improves consistency with existing
reference syntax.
