Repeated "mutable/immutable borrow" error messages

[tommyip]

Minimal example:

fn do_something<T>(collection: &mut Vec<T>) {
    let a = &collection;
    collection.swap(1, 2);
}

Error message (ran in playground):

rustc 1.17.0 (56124baa9 2017-04-24)
error[E0502]: cannot borrow `*collection` as mutable because `collection` is also borrowed as immutable
 --> <anon>:3:5
  |
2 |     let a = &collection;
  |              ---------- immutable borrow occurs here
3 |     collection.swap(1, 2);
  |     ^^^^^^^^^^ mutable borrow occurs here
4 | }
  | - immutable borrow ends here

report_error_if_loans_conflict calls report_error_if_loan_conflicts_with_restriction twice without checking the return value. Modify it to return Result<(), DiagnosticBuilder<'a>> and check where it is being called ether both calls have returned an (cancel one, emit the other, return false), wether only one was created (emit it, return false) or none has (return true).

I'll fix this, thanks for the instruction!

I would happily have a go at this, if that's ok with @tommyip 😄

[tommyip]

Sure @lochsh go for it!

@lochsh have you had time to work on this? If not could I give it a go? :)

[lochsh]

@joshleeb I totally thought I was going to have time, but I had a crazy week at work this week. Go ahead and give it a go :) I'll find another bug to work on when I definitely have time 👍
