Like for Ubuntu's versioned ones, it seems not recent enough at the
moment (i.e. for the current kernel), if I understand correctly.

Also, it is a single version, i.e. 1.70, right? We didn't use that
particular version in any old kernel version (we moved from 1.68.2 to
1.71.1 in commit 89eed1ab1161 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.71.1") back
then). So I am not sure how useful it would be, but if you think it
will be in the future, perhaps it is worth mentioning.

We may use `cbindgen` too in the future, but not currently.

Is something like `bindgen-web` also available for stable?

Thanks!

Cheers,
