Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @KodrAus (or someone else) soon. If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes. Please see the contribution instructions for more information. |

How about:
Reading from the underlying reader after unwrapping the BufReader<R> with BufReader::into_inner can also cause data loss.

…=KodrAus Enhance the documentation of BufReader for potential data loss This is (IMO) and enhancement of the `std::io::BufReader` documentation, that aims to highlight how relatively easy is to end up with data loss when improperly using an instance of this class. This is following the issue I had figuring out why my application was loosing data, because I focused my attention on the word *multiple instances* of `BufReader` in its `struct` documentation, even if I ever only had one instance. Link to the issue: tokio-rs/tokio#1662
