Description

When there is an unresolved symbol that exists in multiple namespaces at an available import path, rust-analyzer suggests both despite the use statement for them being identical. For example, for an unresolved #[instrument], RA offers tracing::instrument twice in this quick fix because it is both a macro and a module within tracing.

rust-analyzer version: 0.3.1689-standalone
rustc version: 1.73.0-beta.6 (9b9539791 2023-09-17)
relevant settings: 🤷🏼

Research direction

Reproduce the unresolved #[instrument] completion and inspect the import quick-fix path that creates its suggestions. Compare the macro and module candidates, then verify that identical use statements are presented only once; add or run a regression test if the relevant test area is found.
