From: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com>
Subject: compiler-clang: remove version check for BPF Tracing

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.
