Thanks! If possible, I'd rather keep the warning enabled, and fix the
command line instead. Looking at the error and the Makefile, we may not 
need the -lLLVM<version> in the CFLAGS at all, but only in $(LIBS). On
my setup, I can build successfully, without the warnings, with the
following patch:

------
diff --git a/tools/bpf/bpftool/Makefile b/tools/bpf/bpftool/Makefile
index b67454b45a49..dfa4f1bebbb3 100644
--- a/tools/bpf/bpftool/Makefile
+++ b/tools/bpf/bpftool/Makefile

Could you please check whether that works on your side, too?
