[PATCH v4 10/13] rust: init: implement `Zeroable` for `UnsafeCell<T>` and `Opaque<T>`
Posted by Benno Lossin 2 years, 4 months ago
`UnsafeCell<T>` and `T` have the same layout so if `T` is `Zeroable`
then so should `UnsafeCell<T>` be. This allows using the derive macro
for `Zeroable` on types that contain an `UnsafeCell<T>`.
Since `Opaque<T>` contains a `MaybeUninit<T>`, all bytes zero is a valid
bit pattern for that type.

v3 -> v4:
- added Reviewed-by's from Gary and Martin.

v2 -> v3:
- also implement Zeroable for `UnsafeCell<T>` when `T: Zeroable`,
- use `impl_zeroable!` instead of `derive(Zeroable)`.
