Yeah, I have some context at:

  https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/2 ->
feature(compiler_builtins) and a way to avoid certain intrinsics (f32,
f64, i128, u128 and 64-bit divisions/modulos).

We have discussed it at some points with upstream Rust (including
related discussions about having more `cfg`s in `core` or a
`cfg(linux_kernel)` etc.). I don't think we have an open issue
concretely for it, apart from the Clippy one to flag the use the use
of the 64-bit division, but if you open a more general one with some
details, that would be great.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
