Subject: [PATCH 2/7] rust: platform: remove the unbind() callback
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2026 01:52:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261112005455.1224352-3-dakr@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261112005455.1224352-1-dakr@kernel.org>
The driver model uses native Rust lifetimes to let driver data retain
device resources and a Device<Bound> reference for the duration of the
binding. Both remain accessible from the destructor, so a separate
unbind() callback is no longer needed.
Remove platform::Driver::unbind() and the adapter's remove callback and
document that device teardown belongs in Drop or PinnedDrop.
