From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo acme@redhat.com

[ Upstream commit ca26cffa4e4aaeb09bb9e308f95c7835cb149248 ]

Up to f5caf621ee35 ("x86/asm: Fix inline asm call constraints for Clang") we were able to use x86 headers to build to the 'bpf' clang target, as done by the BPF code in tools/perf/.

With that commit, we ended up with following failure for 'perf test LLVM', this is because "clang ... -target bpf ..." fails since 4.0 does not have bpf inline asm support and 6.0 does not recognize the register 'esp', fix it by guarding that part with an #ifndef __BPF__, that is defined by clang when building to the "bpf" target.
