Thanks for testing. I think I was wrong that clang4 is the limit for
that option, though. It comes originally from:

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/20180317160832.GB15772@sigill.intra.peff.net/

where clang4 just happened to be the oldest thing I had access to at the
time, so we used that as a minimum. So probably all of our "clang4"
could really be "any clang" (but it is probably OK to leave it as-is).
