Subject: [PATCH] Revert "scripts/clang-tools: Handle included .c files in
gen_compile_commands"
This reverts commit 9362d34acf91a706c543d919ade3e651b9bd2d6f.
Dmitry Vyukov reported that commit 9362d34acf91 ("scripts/clang-tools:
Handle included .c files in gen_compile_commands") generates false
entries in some cases for C files that are included in other C files but
not meant for standalone compilation.
For properly forking clangd, including .c files is discouraged.
Reported-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@...gle.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/r/CACT4Y+Z8aCz0XcoJx9XXPHZSZHxGF8Kx9iUbFarhpTSEPDhMfg@mail.gmail.com
