[PATCH 03/17] genksyms: reduce type_qualifier directly to decl_specifier

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Mon Jan 13 2025 - 10:10:18 EST


A type_qualifier (const, volatile, etc.) is not a type_specifier.

According to K&R [1], a type-qualifier should be directly reduced to
a declaration-specifier.

<declaration-specifier> ::= <storage-class-specifier>
| <type-specifier>
| <type-qualifier>
