Subject: [PATCH 19/24] rust: sync: Add abstraction for synchronize_rcu()
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 13:30:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731203031.13679-20-boqun@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260731203031.13679-1-boqun@kernel.org>

From: Philipp Stanner <phasta@kernel.org>

synchronize_rcu() is a frequently used C function which is always safe
to be called.

Add a safe abstraction for synchronize_rcu().
