The first two commit cleanup some out-of-date documentation
The third commit uses the
rustversion
create to make the methods from #352const
if the user is on a new enough compiler version.The fourth commit removes the
const_fn!
macro, and usesrustversion
to just enable theGlobalDescriptorTable
const methods if theconst_fn
feature is selected.In theory, we could also remove/deprecate the
const_fn
feature, and just have the GDT methods be const unconditionally if the compiled on nightly. That's a more complicated question, so I'll leave it for a follow up PR.
