### What it does
Checks for casts of a function pointer to any integer type.
### Why is this bad?
Casting a function pointer to an integer can have surprising results and can occur
accidentally if parentheses are omitted from a function call. If you aren't doing anything
low-level with function pointers then you can opt-out of casting functions to integers in
order to avoid mistakes. Alternatively, you can use this lint to audit all uses of function
pointer casts in your code.
### Example
```
// fn1 is cast as `usize`
fn fn1() -> u16 {
1
};
let _ = fn1 as usize;
```
Use instead:
```
// maybe you intended to call the function?
fn fn2() -> u16 {
1
};
let _ = fn2() as usize;
// or
// maybe you intended to cast it to a function type?
fn fn3() -> u16 {
1
}
let _ = fn3 as fn() -> u16;
```
