AArch64 things - a new AArch64 run-time crate aimed at PMSA (i.e. MPU) based systems is coming soon. aarch64-rt will continue to focus on VMSA/MMU based systems that have EL3 available.

Triage

rust-embedded/cortex-m#531
→ CI fails because it requires feature(asm_const) which was stabilized in 1.82. It was still an open question if we should bump MSRV accordingly. Can we agree on that?

rust-embedded/cortex-m#625
→ New PR from today, not urgent at all, but quite simple so could be quickly done?

[thejpster]

When are we doing a cortex-m release? We've gathered up quite a few changes I think?

Reminder that we are gathering/discussing FAQs (new, reformulated, improved) for https://rust-embedded.org here:
