I mean:

        for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
                let remote_ptr = unsafe { ptr.get_remote_ptr(cpu) };
                unsafe { (*remote_ptr).write(val.clone()); }
                let arc = Arc::new(alloc, flags).ok()?;
                Some(Self { alloc: arc })
        }

Is it possible to do the above in rust?
