When building the rust_print sample with CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n, the Rust
static key support falls back to using static_key_count. This function
accepts a mutable pointer to the `struct static_key`, but the Rust
abstractions are incorrectly passing a const pointer.
This means that builds using CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n and SAMPLE_RUST_PRINT=y
fail with the following error message:
error[E0308]: mismatched types

| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To fix this, insert a pointer cast so that the pointer is mutable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
