We are at the intersect of two worlds here. Maybe these issues are
well known in the linux for rust world, but they are not really known
to the netdev world, and to some extend the kernel developers /
maintainers world. We need to spread knowledge between each world.

So maybe this "lessons learned" is not really for the Rust people, but
for the netdev community, and kernel developers and Maintainers in
general?
