These tests were moved to use inline assembly recently (2 month ago).
Discussion at the time was whether to use \n\ or \ terminators at the
end of each line. People opted for \ as easier to read.
Replacing \ with \n\ and compiling this test using clang 14 shows
more informative error message:

$ make -j14 `pwd`/verifier_and.bpf.o
  CLNG-BPF [test_maps] verifier_and.bpf.o
progs/verifier_and.c:68:1: error: invalid operand for instruction
        w1 %%= 2;                                       \n\
^
<inline asm>:11:5: note: instantiated into assembly here
        w1 %= 2; 

My guess is that clang 14 does not know how to handle operations on
32-bit sub-registers w[0-9].

But using clang 14 I get some errors not related to inline assembly as well.
Also, I recall that there were runtime issues with clang 14 and
tests using enum64.

All-in-all, you need newer version of clang for tests nowadays,
sorry for inconvenience.
