The ptff() and clear_table() functions use the gcc extension "variable
length arrays in structures" (VLAIS) to define in the inline assembler
constraints the area of the clobbered memory. This extension will most
likely never be supported by LLVM/Clang.
Since currently BPF programs are compiled with LLVM, this leads to the
following compile errors:
$ cd samples/bpf
$ make

In file included from ./include/linux/netdevice.h:44:

constant size: 'variable length array in structure' extension will never
be supported
typedef struct { char _[len]; } addrtype;
To fix this do the following:
- Convert ptff() into a macro that then uses a fixed size array
when expanded.
- Convert the clear_table() function and use an inline assembly
with fixed size array in a loop.
The runtime performance of the new version is even better than
the old version (tested with EC12/z13 and gcc 4.8.5/6.2.1 with
"-march=z196 -O2").
