kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))
To increase compiler portability there is <linux/compiler.h> which provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've replaced all instances of gcc attributes with the right macro in the kernel subsystem. Signed-off-by: Gideon Israel Dsouza <gidisrael@gmail.com> Cc: "Rafael J.
