These 4 options should be wrapped inside "#ifdef HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT"
because
it requires bpf_param which won't be compiled if HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is set.

Another choice should be introducing something like
tools/perf/utils/llvm.c and
putting all llvm related things into it. If other part of perf also use
llvm,
making a new file to hold those options should be a better way.
