At least its a library for generating the bindings. You can then create a cargo xtask for it with something like codegenrs

Rust for Windows Bindings: Generating the Entire Windows API Surface from Metadata
I know but right now the best thing we have in terms of bindings to the native windows kernel APIs is https://github.com/pravic/winapi-kmd-rs which unfortunately never received polishing.
