So I think that merging the patchset through a single tree is easier;
netdev or rust.

Miguel, how do you prefer to merge the patchset?

What are the merge conflicts looking like? What has happened in the
past? [...]

Miguel has said before that if subsystems are comfortable bringing
rust through their trees then they are welcome to do so, which helps
get a better idea of how everything works together. If you prefer not
to, it can come through rust-next with no problem.

There are no serious conflicts on the rust side since there is no net
module yet. I think that most new things will need to touch lib.rs and
the binding helper just to register themselves, but those are trivial
(e.g. same for wq updates coming [1]).

Or is this the first driver to actually get this far towards
being merged?

I think that answer is yes :) at least for an actual leaf driver.
Hence some of the build system rough edges.
