Yeah, you can definitely try this or the downstream rust-for-linux
project - both should work well on RISC-V.
The problematic part is figuring out what ISA extensions are supported
by the rust compiler being used (and by bindgen), and deciding what to
put in -march as a result.

I think it is unlikely to matter for you, unless you're aggressively
mixing versions for different parts of your toolchain.

I do intend revisting this, probably after the min. version for rust
gets bumped, I've just been really busy with other work the last weeks.

Cheers,
Conor.
