scripts: checkpatch: Add __aligned to the list of attribute notes

Checkpatch presumes attributes marked with __aligned(alignment) are part
of a function declaration and throws a warning stating that those
compiler attributes should have an identifier name which is not correct.
Add __aligned compiler attributes to the list of attribute notes
so they don't cause warnings anymore.
