Masahiro cannot pick this up because the patch to add clang-version.sh
to MAINTAINERS is in mmotm.

I think the better solution is for Andrew to drop the current version of

maintainers-add-a-couple-more-files-to-the-clang-llvm-section.patch

and pick up the second one I sent, which allows us to deal with this:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210114171629.592007-1-natechancellor@gmail.com/

I am not sure it is right for us to maintain cc-version.sh but I am open
to it if Masahiro agrees.
