Yeah, attributes can be used either with or without double
underscores, see
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Attribute-Syntax.html#Attribute-Syntax.

In this file, we always use the underscore ones to minimize the chance
of collisions, since the idea is that the rest of the kernel uses the
shorthands provided here.
