kernel: add support for gcc 5
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We're missing include/linux/compiler-gcc5.h which is required now
because gcc branched off to v5 in trunk.

Just copy the relevant bits out of include/linux/compiler-gcc4.h,
no new code is added as of now.

This fixes a build error when using gcc 5.

/* Mark functions as cold. gcc will assume any path leading to a call
to them will be unlikely. This means a lot of manual unlikely()s
are unnecessary now for any paths leading to the usual suspects
like BUG(), printk(), panic() etc. [but let's keep them for now for
older compilers]
Early snapshots of gcc 4.3 don't support this and we can't detect this
in the preprocessor, but we can live with this because they're unreleased.
Maketime probing would be overkill here.
gcc also has a __attribute__((__hot__)) to move hot functions into
a special section, but I don't see any sense in this right now in
the kernel context */
