From 6d2ef226f2f18d530e48ead0cb5704505628b797 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2021 10:20:01 -0700 Subject: compiler_attributes.h: drop __has_attribute() support for gcc4 Now that GCC 5.1 is the minimally supported default, the manual workaround for older gcc versions not having __has_attribute() are no longer relevant and can be removed.
