Uplift `clippy::{drop,forget}_{ref,copy}` lints This PR aims at uplifting the `clippy::drop_ref`, `clippy::drop_copy`, `clippy::forget_ref` and `clippy::forget_copy` lints. Those lints are/were declared in the correctness category of clippy because they lint on useless and most probably is not what the developer wanted. ## `drop_ref` and `forget_ref` The `drop_ref` and `forget_ref` lint checks for calls to `std::mem::drop` or `std::mem::forget` with a reference instead of an owned value. ### Example ```rust let mut lock_guard = mutex.lock(); std::mem::drop(&lock_guard) // Should have been drop(lock_guard), mutex // still locked operation_that_requires_mutex_to_be_unlocked(); ``` ### Explanation Calling `drop` or `forget` on a reference will only drop the reference itself, which is a no-op. It will not call the `drop` or `forget` method on the underlying referenced value, which is likely what was intended. ## `drop_copy` and `forget_copy` The `drop_copy` and `forget_copy` lint checks for calls to `std::mem::forget` or `std::mem::drop` with a value that derives the Copy trait. ### Example ```rust let x: i32 = 42; // i32 implements Copy std::mem::forget(x) // A copy of x is passed to the function, leaving the // original unaffected ``` ### Explanation Calling `std::mem::forget` [does nothing for types that implement Copy](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/mem/fn.drop.html) since the value will be copied and moved into the function on invocation. ----- Followed the instructions for uplift a clippy describe here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99696#pullrequestreview-1134072751 cc `@m-ou-se` (as T-libs-api leader because the uplifting was discussed in a recent meeting) |
