Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 00/25] Rust support

Hey,

Maybe I am just missing something blatantly obvious here, but trying
to build rust support in -next fails for me. I am using ClangBuiltLinux
clang version 15.0.0 5b0788fef86ed7008a11f6ee19b9d86d42b6fcfa and LLD
15.0.0. Is it just expected that building -next with rust support is
not a good idea?
My defconfig is the default RISC-V one plus:
CONFIG_RUST=y
CONFIG_SAMPLES=y
CONFIG_SAMPLES_RUST=y
CONFIG_SAMPLE_RUST_MINIMAL=y

Thanks,
Conor.
