_SKIPPED_FILES_WITH_WARNING is usually used for files imported from 
ohter repositories, which follow other style guidelines
If it's only a hand full of lines you can ignore it, if there is no 
"good" way to fix it. Do you need the "__" prefix, or what's the exact 
problem with the line?
For the noinline attribute exists the NEVER_INLINE macro in WebKit.

Maybe you can upload the patch to a bugzilla bug, and only post the 
bugid here so people can CC there, and we don't need to spam the list 
for such specific questions.
