Just to add a bit more colour to Miguel's reply.
I believe idea behind include/linux/compiler_attributes.h is to make
attribute wrappers as simple and transparent to use as native compiler
attributes. In particular, this means they should be available in every
kernel compilation unit without any additional effort.
For this reason, all the nessesary plumbing is handled at the build
machinery level (see scripts/Makefile.lib:171), where '-include'
compiler flag is used to pull in include/linux/compiler_types.h, which
in turn pulls include/linux/compiler_attributes.h.
