Are you referring to Hellwig saying, "No rust code in kernel/dma, please."? I took that to mean just dma.

The objection was to a separate file entirely outside of his subtree, describing its interface, which is apparently supposed to be duplicated instead in each rust driver that references it, for no clear reason -- other than his stated reason of not wanting to see languages other than C in the kernel at all.
I was referring to the statements provided by the children of this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42978746 (they were made at roughly the same time you posted this, so you wouldn't have seen them then)
Ah, sorry. I see it now.
No need to be sorry, you're all good!
