It may be technically insufficient, if the RfL folks can't integrate Rust without C changes.

All of the changes in the patch (ever since v1) have been entirely contained inside the rust directory, with most of the changes being in the rust/kernel/dma.rs file. There were no changes to C files, or to files inside the kernel/dma directory.
