It is defined more than once; removing the duplicate (as Arnd

Will fix.

I've been in the habit of labelling the patches which go through the
LLVMLinux project like this so they are trivially identifiable in the
subject on lkml for reviewers and in the git log as being patches which
exist because of clang. If it's annoying I certainly don't need to do it.
