[PATCH] compiler-gcc: get back Clang build

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Tue Aug 21 2018 - 02:49:44 EST


Commit cafa0010cd51 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6")
missed the fact that <linux/compiler-gcc.h> is included by Clang
as well as by GCC.

Clang actually defines __GNUC__, __GNUC_MINOR__, __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__
and it looks like GCC 4.2.1.

$ scripts/gcc-version.sh -p clang
040201

If you try to build the kernel with Clang, you will get the
"Sorry, your compiler is too old - please upgrade it."
followed by a bunch of "unknown attribute" warnings.

Add !defined(__clang__) to the minimum version check.

Also, revive the version test blocks for versions >= 4.2.1
in order to disable features not supported by Clang.

Fixes: cafa0010cd51 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6")
