[The situation in the kernel, or an embedded (non-hosted) platform is a different issue.] Yes, I know that there are already some such symbols in sparse. That is no reason to add more! ;-) [I suspect that some people will disagree, saying that I'm just an old curmudgeon! Well, OK. :) ] Perhaps just removing the '_ATTR' part of the symbol would be sufficient. ie. FORMAT(pos), NORETURN and SENTINEL.
