    /// pass by value.
    ///
    /// **Why is this bad?** In many calling conventions instances of structs will
    /// be passed through registers if they fit into two or less general purpose
    /// registers.
    ///
    /// **Known problems:** This lint is target register size dependent, it is
    /// limited to 32-bit to try and reduce portability problems between 32 and
    /// 64-bit, but if you are compiling for 8 or 16-bit targets then the limit
    /// will be different.
    ///
    /// The configuration option `trivial_copy_size_limit` can be set to override
    /// this limit for a project.
    ///
    /// This lint attempts to allow passing arguments by reference if a reference
    /// to that argument is returned. This is implemented by comparing the lifetime
    /// of the argument and return value for equality. However, this can cause
    /// false positives in cases involving multiple lifetimes that are bounded by
    /// each other.
    ///
    /// **Example:**
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// // Bad
    /// fn foo(v: &u32) {}
    /// ```
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// // Better
    /// fn foo(v: u32) {}

    /// because that might induce API breakage, if the parameter is declared as mutable,
    /// or if the argument is a `self`.
    ///
    /// **Why is this bad?** Arguments passed by value might result in an unnecessary
