Please understand that the rust memory and thread security mainly applies to "normal" applications.

In kernel, you can run a privileged cache or mmu instruction or a write to some magical memory position and all the sudden the "normal" rules don't apply anymore.

(But I think there are other parts of rust that are nice to have in kernel or any complex software).
