Yes, just mkdir -p llvm-project/llvm/build is OK.

I search the related doc [1] [2], remove this option is OK for me.

BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL

     Flag indicating if each LLVM component (e.g. Support) is built as a 
shared library (ON) or as a static library (OFF). Its default value is OFF.

[1] https://www.llvm.org/docs/CMake.html
[2] https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/BUILD_SHARED_LIBS.html

I am not very sure about it because the default value of
LLVM_BUILD_RUNTIME is ON? [3]

option(LLVM_BUILD_RUNTIME
"Build the LLVM runtime libraries." ON)

[3] https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/llvm/CMakeLists.txt

If anyone has any more suggestions, please let me know.
I will send v3 after waiting for other feedback.

By the way, Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst maybe need a separate
patch to remove some cmake options?

Thanks,
Tiezhu
