Subject: [PATCH RFC] checkpatch: extend attributes check to handle more patterns
It is generally preferred that the macros from
include/linux/compiler_attributes.h are used, unless there
is a reason not to.
Checkpatch currently checks __attribute__ for each of
packed, aligned, printf, scanf, and weak. Other declarations
in compiler_attributes.h are not handled.
Add more definitions to the attribute check.
The following patterns are added:
__alias__(#symbol)
__always_inline__
__assume_aligned__(a, ## __VA_ARGS__)
__cold__
__const__
__copy__(symbol)
__designated_init__
__externally_visible__
__gnu_inline__
__malloc__
__mode__(x)
__no_caller_saved_registers__
__noclone__
__fallthrough__
__noinline__
__nonstring__
__noreturn__
__pure__
__unused__
__used__
