  15     /// Checks for `&*(&T)`.
  16     ///
  17     /// ### Why is this bad?
  18     /// Dereferencing and then borrowing a reference value has no effect in most cases.
  19     ///
  20     /// ### Known problems
  21     /// False negative on such code:
  22     /// ```
  23     /// let x = &12;
  24     /// let addr_x = &x as *const _ as usize;
  25     /// let addr_y = &&*x as *const _ as usize; // assert ok now, and lint triggerd.
  26     ///                                         // But if we fix it, assert will fail.
  27     /// assert_ne!(addr_x, addr_y);
  28     /// ```
  29     ///
  30     /// ### Example
  31     /// ```rust
  32     /// fn foo(_x: &str) {}
  33     ///
  34     /// let s = &String::new();
  35     ///
  36     /// let a: &String = &* s;
  37     /// foo(&*s);
  38     /// ```
  39     ///
  40     /// Use instead:
  41     /// ```rust
  42     /// # fn foo(_x: &str) {}
  43     /// # let s = &String::new();
  44     /// let a: &String = s;
  45     /// foo(&**s);
  46     /// ```
