I am not sure I am following correctly the tests, but are you
referring to rebuilding all the Rust artifacts (and not just the host
ones)?

I think that would still be not generally supported by the kernel,
since you still used a different host/target pair (i.e. different
toolchains/binaries) -- if I understand correctly, your out-of-tree
module ends up using `.rmeta`s that are different than those used for
the main kernel since they come from a different build, even if they
are all accepted by the Rust compiler since it built them all.

Nice to hear that worked here, though :)

Thanks a lot for all the tests you performed! I really appreciate it.

Cheers,
Miguel
