New "Faux Bus" API Merged For Linux 6.14 - Including Both Rust & C Bindings


A few weeks back the Linux kernel 'Faux Bus' was proposed by Greg Kroah-Hartman as a 'fake' bus solution for simple devices

Today ahead of the Linux 6.14-rc3 tagging, the faux bus code was merged and comes at the same time both with C and Rust language bindings. The faux bus aims to address these situations rather than drivers targeting the full platform device interface. I'm adding this now so that the patches that convert the different drivers and subsystems can all start flowing into linux-next now through their different development trees, in time for 6.15-rc1.
