[PATCH v4 1/3] rust: implement `Wrapper<T>` for `Opaque<T>`
Posted by Christian Schrefl 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Moves the implementation for `pin-init` from an associated function
to the trait function of the `Wrapper` trait and extends the
implementation to support pin-initializers with error types.

Adds a use for the `Wrapper` trait in `revocable.rs`, to use the new
`pin-init` function. This is currently the only usage in the kernel.

Danilo, FYI this is basically a patch from my `UnsafePinned`
series [0] that I've used instead of your patch [1] that does something similar.
(I've only dropped `the call is infallible` from the safety
comment like in your patch since I missed that before).

Let me know if you want me to handle this any different.

No, that's fine, I wasn't aware of this patch, let's go with this one then.
