+    /// **Why is this bad?** The Mutex types found in syd::sync and parking_lot
+    /// are not designed to operator in an async context across await points.
+    ///
+    /// There are two potential solutions. One is to use an asynx-aware Mutex
+    /// type. Many asynchronous foundation crates provide such a Mutex type. The
+    /// other solution is to ensure the mutex is unlocked before calling await,
+    /// either by introducing a scope or an explicit call to Drop::drop.
+    ///
+    /// **Known problems:** None.
+    ///
+    /// **Example:**
+    ///
+    /// ```rust,ignore
+    /// use std::sync::Mutex;
+    ///
+    /// async fn foo(x: &Mutex<u32>) {
+    ///   let guard = x.lock().unwrap();

+    /// async fn foo(x: &Mutex<u32>) {
