unreachable_publint warns items that are marked aspubbut are not actually included in the public API, and suggests usingpub(crate)instead.pub(crate)is a bit more verbose thanpub, but this should make it easier to review changes that make it difficult to tell if it will break API or not just by looking at the diff like #617 (comment). Especially, there are many such codes in crossbeam-channel and crossbeam-epoch. (Hopefully, after this patch, we can basically consider all items markedpubare public APIs, except for items that have been explicitly hidden from the public API by#[doc(hidden)].)This lint is known to have some false positives, but the crossbeam doesn't seem to be affected.
