    /// Checks for explicit `deref()` or `deref_mut()` method calls.
    ///
    /// ### Why is this bad?
    /// Dereferencing by `&*x` or `&mut *x` is clearer and more concise,
    /// when not part of a method chain.
    ///
    /// ### Example
    /// ```rust
    /// use std::ops::Deref;
    /// let a: &mut String = &mut String::from("foo");
    /// let b: &str = a.deref();
    /// ```
    /// Could be written as:
    /// ```rust
    /// let a: &mut String = &mut String::from("foo");
    /// let b = &*a;
    /// ```
    ///
    /// This lint excludes
    /// ```rust,ignore
    /// let _ = d.unwrap().deref();
    /// ```
