This is wrong - using __weak on the declaration in a header will cause
the weak attribute to be applied to all implementations too (presuming
the C files containing the implementations include the header). You then
get whichever impleentation the linker chooses, which isn't necessarily
the one you wanted.
checkpatch.pl should produce an error about this - see the
WEAK_DECLARATION error introduced in commit 619a908aa334 ("checkpatch:
add error on use of attribute((weak)) or __weak declarations").
Thanks,
Paul
