Commit aea447141c7e ("powerpc: Disable -Wbuiltin-requires-header when
setjmp is used") disabled -Wbuiltin-requires-header because of a warning
about the setjmp and longjmp declarations.

r367387 in clang added another diagnostic around this, complaining that
there is no jmp_buf declaration.

In file included from ../arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c:47:
../arch/powerpc/include/asm/setjmp.h:10:13: error: declaration of
built-in function 'setjmp' requires the declaration of the 'jmp_buf'
type, commonly provided in the header <setjmp.h>.

[-Werror,-Wincomplete-setjmp-declaration]
extern void longjmp(long *, long);
            ^
2 errors generated.

Take the same approach as the above commit by disabling the warning for
the same reason, we provide our own longjmp/setjmp function.

It may be worth using -fno-builtin-setjmp and -fno-builtin-longjmp
instead as it makes it clear to clang that we are not using the builtin
longjmp and setjmp functions, which I think is why these warnings are
appearing (at least according to the commit that introduced this waring).

Sample patch:
https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/625#issuecomment-519251372

However, this is the most conservative approach, as I have already had
someone notice this error when building LLVM with PGO on tip of tree
LLVM.
