Rule 1.1 is uncontroversial and we are already following it.

Rule 5.6 has been deemed a good rule to have by the MISRA C group.
However, we do have a significant amount of violations that will take
time to resolve and might require partial deviations in the form of
in-code comments or MISRA C scanners special configurations (ECLAIR).
For new code, we want this rule to apply hence the addition to
docs/misra/rules.rst.

Except for our extensive use of compiler extensions. I thought we had
agreed to add a respective remark?

May I ask to insert "generally" ahead of "apply". As mentioned I can
see it becoming necessary to add such in new code, then right away
with deviation and suitably justified.
