^^^ you're using a Clang pre-release, breakages are expected until
Clang 13 is final.

I think there was a thread about this at some point. I guess LKP has
decided that testing Clang pre-releases is fair game? I guess it's
useful, but this warning here needs to be ignored. It'll go away when
you rebuild your pre-release Clang 13 from the latest LLVM main
branch.

Clang 13 will support the attribute, but this is a pre-release Clang
13 -- so please ignore the report. FWIW, I tested my patch of course
with a version of Clang 13 that supports the attribute. :-)
