We introduced a new Warning called NON_NULLABLE_EQUALS_PARAMETER a few releases ago. It warns when the parameter of an operator == override has a nullable type:

"The parameter type of '==' operators should be non-nullable."

I didn't realize it at the time, but that new warning, plus null safety, basically replace the avoid_null_checks_in_equality_operators lint rule. This rule reports doing any null-check work on a nullable parameter of an operator == override.

As I found out when I migrated the tests from the legacy framework, the rule is a bit non-sensical now because of the redundancy. Every test case either has a WarningCode.NON_NULLABLE_EQUALS_PARAMETER, if it features a nullable parameter, or it features another warning like WarningCode.UNNECESSARY_NULL_COMPARISON_TRUE or StaticWarningCode.INVALID_NULL_AWARE_OPERATOR, if the parameter is non-nullable and is compared to null.

I agree that this should be deprecated. The first step is probably to get it removed from the 'recommended' set.

This repo refers to the `avoid_null_checks_in_equality_operators` lint rule, which is being removed as per https://github.com/dart-lang/linter/issues/5063.

This repo is also being migrated, as I understand it. I suggest we disable for now, and can remove the `avoid_null_checks_in_equality_operators` enablement after the migration, and re-enable the tests then.
