Subject: [PATCH 4/4] tools lib bpf: Don't do a feature check when cleaning

From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@...wei.com>

Before this patch libbpf always do feature check even when cleaning.

For example:

  $ cd kernel/tools/lib/bpf
  $ make

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                           bpf: [ on  ]

    CC       libbpf.o
    CC       bpf.o
    LD       libbpf-in.o
    LINK     libbpf.a
    LINK     libbpf.so
  $ make clean
    CLEAN    libbpf
    CLEAN    core-gen
  $ make clean

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                        libelf: [ on  ]
  ...                           bpf: [ on  ]

    CLEAN    libbpf
    CLEAN    core-gen
  $

Although the first 'make clean' doesn't show feature check result, it
still does the check. No output because check result is similar to
FEATURE-DUMP.libbpf.

This patch uses same method as perf to turn off feature checking when
'make clean'.
