This struct does not need to be annotated with `#[pin_data]`, this
should just work:

pub(crate) struct DriverConnector;

And then here just return `Self`.

This works, since there is a blanket impl `PinInit<T, E> for T`.

Looking at how you use this API, I am not sure if you actually need
pin-init for the type that implements `DriverConnector`.
Do you need to store eg `Mutex<T>` or something else that needs
pin-init in here in a more complex driver?
