I really do suggest you work on your kconfig. The expectation is any
configuration that kconfig is happy with will build. People like Arnd
Bergmann do lots of randconfig builds. We don't want his work upset by
Rust code.

And as a Rust beginning, i find this pretty unfriendly, in that i
followed https://docs.kernel.org/rust/quick-start.html but did not get
a working build.
