The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This is a small internal code cleanup in the Trezor firmware's Rust code. It introduces a dedicated Rust error type for input/output operations so the code no longer borrows MicroPython's error type directly. The behavior appears unchanged: the same end-of-buffer condition still returns an equivalent EOF error, and the bytes-type check still returns the same type error. There is no indication this fixes or introduces a security vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal code-quality refactor during routine review.
