Subject: [PATCH 0/2] rust/kernel: Add bindings for manually creating devices

As many of you are probably aware, there's a number of kernel modules in
the Linux kernel that don't actually probe a device on a bus - but
instead simply create a virtual platform device. One such example is the
virmidi driver (sound/drivers/virmidi.c) These patches add the
ability to do this with our current platform device bindings for rust.

The main usecase for this is the WIP driver, rvkms:
