ARM/Thumb function attribute

This list is for development of gcc, not gcc users. In future gcc-help, or 
some other arm specific list is the correct place to ask such questions.

The low bit of a function pointer value indicates thumbness. The caller 
doesn't know or care whether it is calling an Arm or Thumb function.

However note that

This isn't a function pointer, it's an actual function declaration. Expect 
this to break because (a) it's probably out of range of a branch instruction, 
and (b) your linker defined symbol won't have the correct type.
