We stated in documentation [1] and previous discussions [2] that the need for overriding fields in members of subsets is anticipated. Implement it. Since each attr is now a new object we need to make sure that the modifications are propagated. Specifically C codegen wants to annotate which attrs are used in requests and replies to generate the right validation artifacts.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
