[PATCH v2] rust: phy: replace `MaybeUninit::zeroed().assume_init()` with `pin_init::zeroed()`
Posted by Yizhe Sun 3 months, 2 weeks ago
From: Benno Lossin <lossin@kernel.org>

All types in `bindings` implement `Zeroable` if they can, so use
`pin_init::zeroed` instead of relying on `unsafe` code.

If this ends up not compiling in the future, something in bindgen or on
the C side changed and is most likely incorrect.
