Came across a recent commit bc58905eb07 ("samples: rust_misc_device: use
vertical import style") and found a few more locations that could
benefit from this cleanup. No functional changes.

You have multiple subsystems here, so you need to split this patch
setup, per subsystem, and submit them separately. Maintainers only
accept patchsets for their own subsystems.

For netdev, please take a read of:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html

You need to get the correct tree, and set the Subject: line correctly.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the feedback.

I was aware of the per-subsystem rule, but reasoned that since these changes are
purely about Rust import formatting coding style with no functional impact on any
subsystem, they might go through the rust-for-linux tree with acks from the
respective subsystem maintainers. The Rust coding style is independent of any
subsystem-specific guidelines.

Is that reasoning off-base, or is the right path to split these out per subsystem
regardless?

Miguel, could you please indicate if you have a preference here?

Thank you.
