Please, note that you can directly test the case in which .config is
not present by running `make htmldocs`. However, to test the case in which
CONFIG_RUST !=y, it is not enough to include a .config; you need to let the
kernel compile for a few seconds first. In other words, until the
compilation process is initiated (using `make`), the build system does not
parse the configuration file or use the defined options.
