You can't ask me for a list of pending jobs (the scheduler knows this, it doesn't make any sense to duplicate that outside)
Silly question: could you add a new exported function to drm_sched to get the list of pending jobs, to be used by the Rust abstraction internally? IDK if that makes any sense.
The drm_sched struct is public, we could just go in there and do it anyway... but then I need to figure out how to do `list_for_each_entry_safe` in Rust and this all makes very little sense when it's clearly the scheduler's job to provide some form of cleanup function users can use to do it...
I mean, I guess I can do that if Christian is adamantly against providing a safe C API, but it's clearly not the right solution and I hope this is not the approach maintainers take with Rust abstractions, because that's going to make our lives a lot harder for no good reason, and it also means C users don't get any of the benefits of Rust abstraction work if the APIs can't be improved at all along with it.
