The C version that is used for GCC 4.4 and up works well with clang;
however, it is not currently being used because Clang masks itself
as GCC 4.2.1 for compatibility reasons. As Nick points out, we require
GCC 4.6 and newer in the kernel so we can eliminate all of the
versioning checks and just use the C version of umul_ppmm for all
supported compilers.
