Subject: arm64: Kconfig: clean up tautological LLVM version checks
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2024 15:55:11 -0700
Now that the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel has
been bumped to 13.0.1, several conditions become tautologies, as they will
always be true because the build will fail during the configuration stage
for older LLVM versions. Drop them, as they are unnecessary.
