Subject: [PATCH v4 15/16] rust: io: register: remove `Register` trait and cleanup macro
Date: Tue, 01 Sep 2026 17:50:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901-typed_register-v4-15-5552b1d59525@garyguo.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901-typed_register-v4-0-5552b1d59525@garyguo.net>

With the removal of relative registers, there are only two type of
registers left, fixed register and register arrays. There is not much
benefit in having a common super trait for them anymore, thus remove it,
and cleanup the macro rules associated with it.
