[PATCH] compiler-clang: remove version check for BPF Tracing

From: Nick Desaulniers
Date: Wed Nov 04 2020 - 14:11:11 EST


bpftrace parses the kernel headers and uses Clang under the hood. Remove
the version check when __BPF_TRACING__ is defined (as bpftrace does) so
that this tool can continue to parse kernel headers, even with older
clang sources.
