The compiler team's explanation

The cmse-nonsecure-call ABI can only be used with function pointers.

Erroneous code example:

#![feature(abi_cmse_nonsecure_call)]

pub extern "cmse-nonsecure-call" fn test() {}

The cmse-nonsecure-call ABI should be used by casting function pointers to specific addresses.
