Ok, did a few clarifications in the warning message and tested it with a
f25 kit, i.e. clang/LLVM 3.8, all seems ok now, please see:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git/commit/?h=perf/core&id=464cf82b6c9304e981f3af831ca8ab608e862687

For my case, I end up getting this message:

  Makefile.config:807: No suitable libLLVM found, disabling builtin clang and LLVM support. Please install llvm-dev(el) (>= 3.9.0)

Please holler if it is in any way misleading or erroneous.
