+    /// ### Example
+    ///
+    /// ```rust,compile_fail
+    /// #![feature(default_field_values)]
+    /// #[deny(default_field_always_invalid_const)]
+    /// struct Foo {
+    ///     bar: u8 = 130 + 130, // `260` doesn't fit in `u8`
+    /// }
+    /// ```
+    ///
+    /// {{produces}}
+    ///
+    /// ### Explanation
+    ///
+    /// Without this lint, the error would only happen only during construction
+    /// of the affected type. For example, given the type above, `Foo { .. }`
+    /// would always fail to build, but `Foo { bar: 0 }` would be accepted. This
+    /// lint will catch accidental cases of const values that would fail to
+    /// compile, but won't detect cases that are only partially evaluated.
