Hi Andi,

One fix for this window -- a real use-after-free (KASAN-reported, GitHub
issue linked below), not a cleanup.

Thanks
Igor

  rust: i2c: remove TryFrom<&Device> implementation for &I2cClient (2026-10-21 17:47:21 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
rust: i2c: remove TryFrom<&Device> implementation for &I2cClient

A single fix for the Rust I2C abstractions, targeting 7.4.

Removes an unsound TryFrom<&Device<Ctx>> conversion whose input and
output reference lifetimes were not tied together, letting safe Rust
upgrade a short-lived &Device borrow into an arbitrarily long-lived
&I2cClient that could outlive the underlying device's removal
(use-after-free, reported with a KASAN reproducer). The conversion
had no users, so it's simply removed rather than lifetime-fixed.
