Given Andreas is the one who's going to handle the PRs, and he will put
all the things in one branch. I think it's fine even for long term, and
we got all relevant reviewers covered. If the Rust timekeeping + hrtimer
community expands in the future, we can also add more entries. We don't
necessarily need to copy all maintainer structures from C ;-)

No, I think we should keep it. Because otherwise we will use a macro
version of read_poll_timeout(), which is strictly worse. I'm happy to
collect patch #1 and the cpu_relax() patch of patch #7, and send an PR
to tip. Could you split them a bit:
* Move the Rust might_sleep() in patch #7 to patch #1 and put it at
kernel::task, also if we EXPORT_SYMBOL(__might_sleep_precision), we
don't need the rust_helper for it.
* Have a separate containing the cpu_relax() bit.
* Also you may want to put #[inline] at cpu_relax() and might_resched().
and we can start from there. Sounds good?
