Thanks for the patch. We discussed at the kernelCI meeting yesterday
and the clangbuiltlinux meeting today continuing coverage for kernel
builds with clang-10, so this is still worthwhile IMO at least for
randconfig testing not to select known broken configs when using older
tools. We can rip it out once we bump the minimum supported version of
clang.
