    /// an expression which has a non-trivial Drop implementation to anything,
    /// causing the expression to be dropped immediately instead of at end of
    /// scope.
    ///
    /// ### Example
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// struct SomeStruct;
    /// impl Drop for SomeStruct {
    ///     fn drop(&mut self) {
    ///         println!("Dropping SomeStruct");
    ///     }
    /// }
    ///
    /// fn main() {
    ///    #[warn(let_underscore_drop)]
    ///     // SomeStruct is dropped immediately instead of at end of scope,
    ///     // so "Dropping SomeStruct" is printed before "end of main".
    ///     // The order of prints would be reversed if SomeStruct was bound to
    ///     // a name (such as "_foo").
    ///     let _ = SomeStruct;
    ///     println!("end of main");
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// {{produces}}
    ///
    /// ### Explanation
    ///
    /// Statements which assign an expression to an underscore causes the
    /// expression to immediately drop instead of extending the expression's
    /// lifetime to the end of the scope. This is usually unintended,
    /// especially for types like `MutexGuard`, which are typically used to
    /// lock a mutex for the duration of an entire scope.
    ///
    /// If you want to extend the expression's lifetime to the end of the scope,
    /// assign an underscore-prefixed name (such as `_foo`) to the expression.
    /// If you do actually want to drop the expression immediately, then
    /// calling `std::mem::drop` on the expression is clearer and helps convey
    /// intent.

    /// use std::thread;
    /// let data = Arc::new(Mutex::new(0));
    ///
