-    /// variant of the function.
-    ///
-    /// ### Why is this bad?
-    /// The `utils::*` variants also add a link to the Clippy documentation to the
-    /// warning/error messages.
-    ///
-    /// ### Example
-    /// ```rust,ignore
-    /// cx.span_lint(LINT_NAME, "message");
-    /// ```
-    ///
-    /// Use instead:
-    /// ```rust,ignore
-    /// utils::span_lint(cx, LINT_NAME, "message");
-    /// ```
