I apologize sincerely for the mistake. To increase compiler portability there is which provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've taken up the job of cleaning these attributes all over the kernel. Currently my patches for cleanup of all files under /kernel, /block and /mm are already done and in the linux 3.15 tree. In the following patch I've replaced all aforementioned instances under the /security directory in the kernel source.
