Subject: [GIT PULL] Compiler Attributes for v5.11

Hi Linus,

This one is not a bug fix; but it is not a new feature either...
If you prefer changes like this one to be sent in the merge window,
I will re-send it later on.

If this gets into v5.11, then Masahiro is planning to try to make
the warning an error for v5.12. This commit has already triggered
the discussion/fix of a couple of likely mistakes (or at least
the addition of explanations for the omissions), which is a good thing.

I left it in -next for a few more weeks than planned to see if
(more) people complained about the warnings, but it has been quiet
since then.

Cheers,
Miguel
