[PATCH 0/1] Use macros from compiler.h instead of gcc specific attributes

From: Gideon Israel Dsouza

To increase compiler portability there is <linux/compiler.h> 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 and /block
are already done and in the linux-next tree.

In the following patch I've replaced all aforementioned instances under
the /mm directory in the kernel source.
