The motivation for commit abb2ea7dfd82 ("compiler, clang: suppress
warning for unused static inline functions") was to suppress clang's
warnings about unused static inline functions.
For configs without CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING enabled, such as any non-x86
architecture, `inline' in the kernel implies that
__attribute__((always_inline)) is used.
Some code depends on that behavior, see
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/6/13/918:
net/built-in.o: In function `__xchg_mb':
arch/arm64/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:99: undefined reference to `__compiletime_assert_99'
arch/arm64/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:99: undefined reference to `__compiletime_assert_99
The full fix would be to identify these breakages and annotate the
functions with __always_inline instead of `inline'. But since we are
late in the 4.12-rc cycle, simply carry forward the forced inlining
behavior and work toward moving arm64, and other architectures, toward
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING behavior.

Commit abb2ea7dfd82 ("compiler, clang: suppress warning for unused
static inline functions") just caused more warnings due to re-defining
the 'inline' macro.
So undef it before re-defining it, and also add the 'notrace' attribute
like the gcc version that this is overriding does.
Maybe this makes clang happier.

GCC explicitly does not warn for unused static inline functions for
-Wunused-function. The manual states:
Warn whenever a static function is declared but not defined or
a non-inline static function is unused.
Clang does warn for static inline functions that are unused.
It turns out that suppressing the warnings avoids potentially complex
#ifdef directives, which also reduces LOC.
Suppress the warning for clang.

The default __UNIQUE_ID macro in compiler.h fails to work for some drivers:
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.c:615:1: error: redefinition of
'__UNIQUE_ID_firmware615'
BRCMF_FW_NVRAM_DEF(4354, "brcmfmac4354-sdio.bin", "brcmfmac4354-sdio.txt");
This adds a copy of the version we use for gcc-4.3 and higher, as the same
one works with all versions of clang that I could find in svn (2.6 and higher).

Add a compiler-clang.h file to add specific macros needed for compiling the
kernel with clang.
Initially the only override required is the macro for silencing the
compiler for a purposefully uninintialized variable.
