Subject: [PATCH 4.9 51/77] compiler-gcc.h: Introduce __optimize function attribute

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@...ux-m68k.org>

commit df5d45aa08f848b79caf395211b222790534ccc7 upstream.

Create a new function attribute __optimize, which allows to specify an
optimization level on a per-function basis.
