When compiling include/linux/debugfs.h with CAPABILITY_ANALYSIS enabled, we can see this error: ./include/linux/debugfs.h:239:17: error: use of undeclared identifier 'cancellation' 239 | void __acquires(cancellation) Move the __acquires(..) attribute after the declaration, so that the compiler can see the cancellation function argument, as well as making struct debugfs_cancellation a real capability to benefit from Clang's capability analysis.
