Commit 23ef9d439769 ("kcfi: Rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI")
missed one instance of CONFIG_CFI_CLANG. Rename it to match the original
kernel header. This addresses the following build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
    diff -u tools/include/linux/cfi_types.h include/linux/cfi_types.h

Technically, this was correct when 23ef9d439769 committed:

  $ git show 23ef9d439769:tools/include/linux/cfi_types.h | grep CONFIG_CFI
  #ifdef CONFIG_CFI
  #else /* CONFIG_CFI */
  #endif /* CONFIG_CFI */

This is a cross tree collision, as

  aa34642f6fc3 ("tools headers: Sync linux/cfi_types.h with the kernel source")

was merged in 6.17-rc4 via the perf tools tree but Kees's tree was based
on -rc2, so he did not have it. It only becomes a problem on the merge.

With all that said, I think this fixes tag should really be:

Fixes: a5ba183bdeee ("Merge tag 'hardening-v6.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux")

Regardless, I think the fix is obviously correct.

Ha! Excellent detective skills. I totally missed this.

I'll swap the fixes tag for v2 as suggested, thanks!
