    /// ### Why is this bad?
    /// Multiple `mut`s don't add anything meaningful to the
    /// source. This is either a copy'n'paste error, or it shows a fundamental
    /// misunderstanding of references.
    ///
    /// ### Example
    /// ```rust
    /// # let mut y = 1;
    /// let x = &mut &mut y;
    /// ```
