Starting with Rust 1.86.0 (to be released 2025-04-03), Clippy will have
a new lint, `doc_overindented_list_items` [1], which catches cases of
overindented list items.
The lint has been added by Yutaro Ohno, based on feedback from the kernel
[2] on a patch that fixed a similar case -- commit
0c5928deada1 ("rust:
block: fix formatting in GenDisk doc").
Clippy reports a few cases in the kernel, apart from the one already
fixed in the commit above. One is this one:
error: doc list item overindented
--> rust/kernel/rbtree.rs:1152:5
|
1152 | /// null, it is a pointer to the root of the [`RBTree`].
| ^^^^ help: try using ` ` (2 spaces)
|
= help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#doc_overindented_list_items
= note: `-D clippy::doc-overindented-list-items` implied by `-D warnings`
= help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(clippy::doc_overindented_list_items)]`
Thus clean it up.
