[PATCH v2 1/3] compiler_attributes.h: define __no_profile, add to noinstr

noinstr implies that we would like the compiler to avoid instrumenting a
function.  Add support for the compiler attribute
no_profile_instrument_function to compiler_attributes.h, then add
__no_profile to the definition of noinstr.
