[PATCH v1 7/7] rust: workqueue: add `try_spawn` helper method

From: Alice Ryhl
Date: Wed May 17 2023 - 16:32:02 EST


This adds a convenience method that lets you spawn a closure for
execution on a workqueue. This will be the most convenient way to use
workqueues, but it is fallible because it needs to allocate memory.
