Hi Stephen,

The Compiler Attributes series has been stable for 10+ days. To
increase testing before 4.20, I would to request it being picked up
for -next.

The changes w.r.t. v5 in the LKML:

- Rebased on top of next-20180928, which required removing
aligned_largest, which was removed by 9503cd9cbaba
("include/linux/compiler*.h: add version detection to
asm_volatile_goto").
- Added latest Reviewed-by's and Tested-by's.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
