Makefile does not need to calculate LINUX_VERSION_CODE.
Let's leave it to the preprocessor.

This commit changes include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h as follows:

Before:

  #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 267264
  #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))

After:

  #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE KERNEL_VERSION(4, 20, 0)
  #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))

The latter is more human-readable in my opinion.

I retract this patch
because it would cause a build error.
