Subject: [PATCH 7/7] Compiler Attributes: use feature checks instead of version checks
Date:   Fri, 31 Aug 2018 19:05:14 +0200
Message-Id: <20180831170514.24665-7-miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To: <20180831170514.24665-1-miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com>
References: <20180831170514.24665-1-miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Instead of using version checks per-compiler to define (or not)
each attribute, use __has_attribute to test for them, following
the cleanup started with commit 815f0ddb346c
("include/linux/compiler*.h: make compiler-*.h mutually exclusive").

All the attributes that are fairly common/standard (i.e. those that
do not require extra logic to define them) have been moved
to a new file include/linux/compiler_attributes.h.

In an effort to make the file as regular as possible, comments
stating the purpose of attributes have been removed. Instead,
links to the compiler docs have been added (i.e. to gcc and,
if available, to clang as well). In addition, they have been sorted.

Finally, if an attribute is optional (i.e. if it is guarded
by __has_attribute), the reason has been stated for future reference.
