True, however mod_devicetable.h is already needed for a previous patch "rust:
pci: add basic PCI device / driver abstractions" already. So, I'll add it there
and remove the of_device.h include here.

I think for now it's indeed meaningless and we should just remove it.
If subsequent patches start adding abstractions for things like properties,
device nodes, etc. they can add it back in.

AFAIK, in C we have all those device ID structs in mod_devicetable.h, such that
in can easily be included in scripts/mod/file2alias.c. But I think implementing
all Rust abstractions for those in a single file would be a bit odd. I'd rather
put them together with the corresponding bus abstractions. OF and ACPI may be a
bit of an exception.

That's true, I'll add a note.

Right, I think I just added it for the sample driver, we can get rid of it.
