[PATCH v3 0/2] rust: leds: add led classdev abstractions

From: Markus Probst
Date: Fri Oct 10 2025 - 18:54:18 EST


This patch series has previously been contained in
https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20251008181027.662616-1-markus.probst@xxxxxxxxx/T/#t
which added a rust written led driver for a microcontroller via i2c.

As the reading and writing to the i2c client via the register!
macro has not been implemented yet [1], the patch series will only
contain the additional abstractions required.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/DDDS2V0V2NVJ.16ZKXCKUA1HUV@xxxxxxxxxx/

The following changes were made:
* add basic Pin<Vec<T, A>> abstractions, that allow to initialize PinInit items with
the guarantee that these will never be moved.

* add basic led classdev abstractions to register and unregister leds

Changes since v2:
* return `Devres` on `led::Device` creation
* replace KBox<T> with T in struct definition
* increment and decrement reference-count of fwnode
* make a device parent mandatory for led classdev creation
* rename `led::Handler` to `led::LedOps`
* add optional `brightness_get` function to `led::LedOps`
* use `#[vtable]` instead of `const BLINK: bool`
* use `Opaque::cast_from` instead of casting a pointer
* improve documentation
* improve support for older rust versions
* use `&Device<Bound>` for parent

Changes since v1:
* fixed typos noticed by Onur Özkan
