Subject: [net-next PATCH V3 2/5] samples/bpf: Makefile verify LLVM compiler avail and bpf target is supported

From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2016 09:30:18 +0200

Make compiling samples/bpf more user friendly, by detecting if LLVM
compiler tool 'llc' is available, and also detect if the 'bpf' target
is available in this version of LLVM.

 # asm/sysreg.h - inline assembly used by it is incompatible with llvm.
 # But, there is no easy way to fix it, so just exclude it since it is
 # useless for BPF samples.
