compiler-gcc.h: gcc-4.5 needs noclone and noinline on __naked functions
A __naked function is defined in C but with a body completely implemented by asm(), including any prologue and epilogue. These asm() bodies expect standard calling conventions for parameter passing. Older GCCs implement that correctly, but 4.[56] currently do not, see GCC PR44290. In the Linux kernel this breaks ARM, causing most arch/arm/mm/copypage-*.c modules to get miscompiled, resulting in kernel crashes during bootup. Part of the kernel fix is to augment the __naked function attribute to also imply noinline and noclone. This patch implements that, and has been verified to fix boot failures with gcc-4.5 compiled 2.6.34 and 2.6.35-rc1 kernels. The patch is a no-op with older GCCs.
