For attributes that are not supported under all compilers, we have the "Optional" lines in the comment. From a quick look in Godbolt, `__pass_object_size__` and `__overloadable__` are supported for all Clang >= 11 but not GCC/ICC. Thus, could you please add to the comment:
* Optional: not supported by gcc. * Optional: not supported by icc.
to those two patches?
For `__diagnose_as_builtin__`, I only see it on Clang trunk, so I assume >= 14, thus could you please add:
* Optional: only supported since clang >= 14.
?
Thanks!

This should go above on top of the comment (it is true there is one case that does not follow it, but that one has to be cleaned up).
Also, this bit seems to be explained in the Clang documentation (i.e. not kernel-specific). Do you think we need it here?
Cheers, Miguel
