btw, it'd be great if clang can just work on mainline kernel.

I tried to run clang in 0day kbuild tests, however make aborts
quickly in seconds. There are dozens of clang patches provided in

    http://llvm.linuxfoundation.org/index.php/Main_Page

however such our-of-tree patches are not bisect friendly.

Thanks,
Fengguang
