When the clang toolchain has stack protection enabled in order to be
consistent
with gcc - which just happens to be the case on Gentoo - the bpftool build
fails:

Since stack-protector makes no sense for the BPF bits just unconditionally
disable it.

Right, I understand we don't want it when compiling the BPF program from
the skeleton. Looks good, thank you!

LGTM, thanks Holger! Looks like this patch is against GH mirror (https://github.com/libbpf/bpftool).
Manually applied it to the upstream tree:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next.git/commit/?id=878625e1c7a10dfbb1fdaaaae2c4d2a58fbce627

Thanks,
Daniel
