Because those are attributes. With function-like names such patterns:

unrolled()
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)

are counter-intuitive and confusing.

We have either plain-named attributes like `notrace` (BTW what if you
name your variable as `notrace`?) or underscored like `__always_inline`.
If you really need to name your variables `unrolled`, then I'd expect
changing these macros to `__unrolled` etc, not to `unrolled()`.
Although I'm not sure we really need it, there's tons of such macros in
the kernel -- try naming your variable `current`.
