I forgot about this fix, but was exposed to it while processing
Sandipan's patches for fixing up builtin clang support, so I ended up
adding the following patch:

https://git.kernel.org/acme/c/ad0902e0c400

This sidesteps this issue by removing the sequence of includes that ends
up including the compiler.h from a C++ file.

Now 'make LIBCLANGLLVM=1 -C tools/perf' works, but I'll look at the
patch below, probably it will save some time in the future if we get to
include compiler.h from C++ code again...

Take a look at my perf/urgent branch, that I just asked Ingo to pull.
