Becoming a Core Member of Rust-for-Linux

I want to share a small but very meaningful update, I have officially become a core member of Rust-for-Linux in the Linux kernel.

Since a year or so I have been working almost exclusively on the kernel, mostly on synchronization primitives such as SRCU and ww_mutex, workqueue and the Tyr driver for Arm Mali GPUs.

Recently, I was added to the Rust-for-Linux organization on GitHub and added as a reviewer in the main kernel MAINTAINERS entry for this area. Before that, I was also picked as one of the reviewers for synchronization primitives.

The Linux kernel is a project I have been using for more than half of my life and it runs on billions of devices worldwide. Working with such incredible and talented people is a true honor for me. I am very happy to be part of this beautiful project and I am willing to carry this responsibility for a very long time and extend it when required.
