From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>

Add attribute "noclone" or "__noclone" or "__noclone__" as an
ignored attribute. Fixes this sparse warning:

arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:6268:13: error: attribute '__noclone__': unknown attribute

Also add test case for 'noclone': validation/attr-noclone.c.
'make check' says for this test case:
     TEST     attribute noclone (attr-noclone.c)
