[PATCH] rust: debugfs: Implement Reader for Mutex<T> only when T is Unpin

From: Boqun Feng

Date: Tue Oct 21 2025 - 23:42:41 EST


Since we are going to make `Mutex<T>` structurally pin the data (i.e.
`T`), therefore `.lock()` function only returns a `Guard` that can
dereference a mutable reference to `T` if only `T` is `Unpin`, therefore
restrict the impl `Reader` block of `Mutex<T>` to that.
