It simply applies the LLVM attribute with the same name to the function.

Sometimes, a programmer knows that function pointer uniqueness doesn't really matter for some of their functions. In that case, this attribute opens a possibility of certain optimizations like mergefunc with aliases. It's especially useful for code generators.
