Users are likely to manually compile both LLVM 'llc' and 'clang'
tools.  Thus, also allow redefining CLANG and verify command exist.

Makefile implementation wise, the target that verify the command have
been generalized.

If I read the patch correctly, it only checks that any version
of clang is available and llc supports -march=bpf.
That's correct.
There is no need to build the latest clang most of the time.
clang 3.4 and 3.5 are fine to compile samples/bpf/
since llvm ir is mostly compatible with llc from 3.7 or 3.8

Yes, you read the patch correctly :-)

Good to get confirmation. I was testing with clang 3.5.0, and llc 3.9-git.
