I've applied patches 1-4, since they're somewhat indepedent of new features in 5+. What should be the process to land the rest? Land llvm first and add to bpf/README.rst that certain llvm commmits are necessary to build the tests? But CI will start failing. We can wait for that to be fixed, but I wonder is there way to detect new clang __builtins automatically in selftests and skip them if clang is too old?
