According to the notes of samples/bpf/Makefile:
"The reason is due to llvm change https://reviews.llvm.org/D87153
where the CORE relocation global generation is moved from the beginning
of target dependent optimization (llc) to the beginning
of target independent optimization (opt).
Since samples/bpf programs did not use vmlinux.h and its clang compilation
uses native architecture, we need to adjust arch triple at opt level
to do CORE relocation global generation properly. Otherwise, the above
error will appear."
I think opt and llvm-dis are introduced to solve another problem, that
is, the incompatibility of native architecture.

opt add -mtriple=bpf-pc-linux flag,
The complete command is as follows:
clang -O2 -emit-llvm -Xclang -disable-llvm-passes -c $< -o - |
opt -O2 -mtriple=bpf-pc-linux | $(LLVM_DIS) | \
llc -march=bpf $(LLC_FLAGS) -filetype=obj -o $@
This may be a problem. Currently, no simple method is found. Therefore,
refer to the processing method of samles/bpf/Makefile.
