False positive for await_holding_refcell_ref

[Daniel-B-Smith]

I tried this code:

let mut state = self.state.borrow_mut();
let handles = state.cancel_all_in_flight();
drop(state);
let to_cancel = handles.len();
let cancelled = stream::iter(handles).then(|f| f).count().await;

I expected to see this happen: No error since the RefMut is explicitly dropped before the await

Instead, this happened: Brought up a warning

This happens in the recently promoted beta.

This should be pretty easy to fix. As a short term mitigation, I will downgrade the check from correctness and should hopefully be able to work on the fix next week.

Any progress here?

Apologies for the lack of communication. From conversations on Zulip, it is in fact not an easy fix to identify variables that have been explicitly dropped. I intended to add the documentation quickly, but got caught up in things. I just sent out #6585. Unfortunately, I don't have the cycles to dig into this deeply right now.

This lint seems to have been enabled by default in 1.61 and is still producing false positives, breaking my CI.

Bump. This is still breaking my CI. Can we get it rolled back?
