+// - `__enqueue` gets the `work_struct` from the `Work` field, using `T::raw_get_work`.
+// - The only safe way to create a `Work` object is through `Work::new`.
+// - `Work::new` makes sure that `T::Pointer::run` is passed to `init_work_with_key`.
+// - Finally `Work` and `RawWorkItem` guarantee that the correct `Work` field
+// will be used because of the ID const generic bound. This makes sure that `T::raw_get_work`
+// uses the correct offset for the `Work` field, and `Work::new` picks the correct
+// implementation of `WorkItemPointer` for `Arc<T>`.
