These compiler versions are known to miscompile __weak functions and
thus generate kernels that don't necessarily work correctly. If a weak
function is int he same compilation unit as a caller, gcc may end up
inlining it, and thus binding the weak function too early.
See
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27781
for details.

/* 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 */
