[PATCH bpf-next v1 1/4] bpf: allow specifying bpf_fastcall attribute for BPF helpers

[Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com>]

Allow a new optional 'Attributes' section to be specified for helper
functions description, e.g.:

 * u32 bpf_get_smp_processor_id(void)
 * 		...
 * 	Return
 * 		...
 * 	Attributes
 * 		__bpf_fastcall
 *

Generated header for the example above:

  #ifndef __bpf_fastcall
  #if __has_attribute(__bpf_fastcall)
  #define __bpf_fastcall __attribute__((bpf_fastcall))
  #else
  #define __bpf_fastcall
  #endif
  #endif
  ...
  __bpf_fastcall
  static __u32 (* const bpf_get_smp_processor_id)(void) = (void *) 8;

The following rules apply:
- when present, section must follow 'Return' section;
- attribute names are specified on the line following 'Attribute'
  keyword;
- attribute names are separated by spaces;
- section ends with an "empty" line (" *\n").

Valid attribute names are recorded in the ATTRS map.
ATTRS maps shortcut attribute name to correct C syntax.
