that was a workaround when clang/llvm didn't have bpf support.
Now clang 3.7 and 3.8 have bpf built-in, so make sense to remove
manual calls to llc completely.
Just use 'clang -target bpf -O2 -D... -c $< -o $@'

+1, the clang part in that Makefile should also more correctly be called
with '-target bpf' as it turns out (despite llc with '-march=bpf' ...).
Better to use clang directly as suggested by Alexei.

I'm likely missing something obvious, but I cannot get this to work.
With this diff:

         $(obj)/%.o: $(src)/%.c
                clang $(NOSTDINC_FLAGS) $(LINUXINCLUDE) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) \
                        -D__KERNEL__ -D__ASM_SYSREG_H -Wno-unused-value 
-Wno-pointer-sign \
        -               -O2 -emit-llvm -c $< -o -| $(LLC) -march=bpf 
-filetype=obj -o $@
        -       clang $(NOSTDINC_FLAGS) $(LINUXINCLUDE) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) \
        -               -D__KERNEL__ -D__ASM_SYSREG_H -Wno-unused-value 
-Wno-pointer-sign \
        -               -O2 -emit-llvm -c $< -o -| $(LLC) -march=bpf 
-filetype=asm -o $@.s
        +               -O2 -target bpf -c $< -o $@

I see far too many errors thrown starting with:
        ./arch/x86/include/asm/arch_hweight.h:31:10: error: invalid output 
constraint '=a' in asm
                             : "="REG_OUT (res)

ahh. yes. when processing kernel headers clang has to assume x86 style
inline asm, though all of these functions will be ignored.
I don't have a quick fix for this yet.
Let's go back to your original change $(LLC)->llc
