You mean because there are pub(crate) in clist.rs? I don't think the Kconfig
would help with that, nothing prevents people from enabling RUST_CLIST, but none
of the users.

Besides that, once we have the new build system, the users of CList are likely
in other crates anyways, so I think we should just change things to pub.
