Finished `dev` profile [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.60sRationale and extra context
It's rather of seeing a diagnostic for unnecessary parentheses that is pointing nowhere near parenthesis. Also as the offending code is suspected to be macro generated fixing it is non-actionable for the user and as such the diagnostic is confusing.
The involved types all use the #[bitfield] attribute macro, so I suspect it is generating code with unnecessary parenthesis and for some reason they weren't reported prior to 1.90 and for some reason starting with 1.90 they are now reported with odd spans.
